What is a blood clot?<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

A blood clot is a clump of blood that\u2019s changed from a liquid to a gel-like or semisolid state. Clotting is a necessary process that can prevent you from losing too much blood when you have a cut, for example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When a clot forms inside one of your veins, it won\u2019t always dissolve on its own. This can be a very dangerous and even life-threatening situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An immobile blood clot generally won\u2019t harm you, but there\u2019s a chance that it could move and become dangerous. If a blood clot breaks free and travels through your veins to your heart and lungs, it can get stuck and prevent blood flow. This is a medical emergency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blood Clot Symptoms: How to Tell if You Have One<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Arms, Legs<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The most common place for a blood clot to occur is in your lower leg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A blood clot in your leg or arm can have various symptoms, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 swelling
\u2013 pain
\u2013 tenderness
\u2013 a warm sensation
\u2013 reddish discoloration<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your symptoms will depend on the size of the clot. That\u2019s why you might not have any symptoms or only have minor calf swelling without a lot of pain. If the clot is large, your entire leg could become swollen with extensive pain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s not common to have blood clots in both legs or arms at the same time. Your chances of having a blood clot increase if your symptoms are isolated to one leg or one arm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heart<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A blood clot that forms in or around your ticker may cause a heart attack. Watch out for symptoms like these:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Severe pain in your chest and arm
\u2013 Sweating
\u2013 Trouble breathing<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lungs<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A blood clot that travels to your lungs is called a pulmonary embolism (PE). Symptoms that could be a sign of a PE are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 sudden shortness of breath that isn\u2019t caused by exercise
chest pain
\u2013 palpitations, or rapid heart rate
\u2013 breathing problems
\u2013 coughing up blood<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brain<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blood clots here may be caused by fatty deposits in the walls of the blood vessels that bring blood to your brain. Or sometimes, they may form because of a blow to your head that leads to a concussion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In other cases, a clot that starts out in a different part of your body, like your chest or neck, might enter your bloodstream and travel to your brain, where it can cause a stroke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Watch out for these symptoms:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Problems with your vision or speech
\u2013 A seizure
\u2013 General feeling of weakness<\/p>\n\n\n\n

abdomen<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blood clots that develop in the abdomen can target a variety of organs, so symptoms vary from person to person. Some people may not develop \u2014 or notice \u2014 any symptoms at all. Clots that develop in the abdomen are a form of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and can cause symptoms like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 severe abdominal pain
\u2013 abdominal pain that comes and goes
\u2013 nausea
\u2013 vomiting
\u2013 bloody stools
\u2013 diarrhea
\u2013 bloating or swelling in the abdomen
\u2013 abdominal fluid accumulation, known as ascites<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While these symptoms can signal a clot, they can also develop with other conditions. Before diagnosing you with an abdominal blood clot, a doctor may want to rule out other causes, like a stomach virus or food poisoning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kidneys<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A blood clot in your kidneys can keep them from removing waste from your body. That can cause high blood pressure or even kidney failure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is dangerous, so look out for these symptoms:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Pain in the side of your belly, legs, or thighs
\u2013 Blood in your urine
\u2013 Fever
\u2013 Nausea or vomiting
\u2013 High blood pressure
\u2013 Sudden severe leg swelling
\u2013 Trouble breathing<\/p>\n\n\n\n
