Blood clots

Blood clots are thickened blood sequences that form to prevent excessive bleeding when a blood vessel is injured. They involve platelets and proteins that work together to seal wounds. However, sometimes clots form inside blood vessels unexpectedly, which can block blood flow and cause complications like strokes or heart attacks. These unwanted clots can develop due to health conditions, medications, or immobility. Treatments include blood thinners to prevent or dissolve clots, but proper medical care is essential to manage risks and prevent serious health issues related to abnormal clot formation.
