Well, to calm your heart! While clotting is a
scary and trembling word for some, blood clots
arent always clingy. They smoothly help in
jumpstarting the healing journey. But from time
to time, clots can form where they shouldnt.
When this happens, blood clots can break the
flow of blood arising from a condition called
thrombosis and results can be dangerous. Thromb
osis is harmful because it can be hazardous for
life Says Dr. Ranjit Jagtap, an energetic
cardiovascular and thoracic surgeon, with Ram
Mangal Heart Foundation Pune. If not long, try
walking around the office desk, wearing tight
clothes causes blood clots so wear comfortable
lines, says Dr Ranjit Jagtap.

Lets Enquire What A Blood Clot Is.
When a blood vessel is injured, deriving from a
cut, the damaged blood cells are dispatched to
stop the bleeding. Platelets are the cells in our
blood that respond to a message and get to work
forming a clot. The platelets transform from a
liquid to jelly-like clots. They begin to attach
one another to the blood vessel wall. Platelets
grow long tentacles that appear like a net to
capture and trap red blood cells. This response
usually stops when the injury is overhauled and
the body breaks down the clot. However, when a
clot is formed inside one of your veins and
doesnt dissolve, it can turn into a medical
emergency. Medical science says there are 3 types
of blood clots in total, which are formed in
your blood vessels, which are venous
thromboembolism, pulmonary embolism, and
arterial thrombosis.

Venous Thromboembolism (VTE)
This type of blood clot forms in the veins or
arteries most frequently in your legs, thigh,
pelvis, etc. This is the case with DVT
Pulmonary Embolism (PE)
This type of blood clot happens when a clot
breaks and travels to the lungs, blocking a
little bit or all of the blood supply. For
example if a clot from your leg travels from
your legs, such as DVT, travels to your lungs
and blocks blood flow streams, your body cannot
get the relevant oxygen and nutrients it needs.
