6 ) Fainting

Our brains are really sensitive when it comes to changes in blood flow and oxygen, which is why we may feel lightheaded. Fainting indicates a serious problem in your body that shouldn’t be ignored. Make sure you visit your doctor for a check-up as fast as you can.

To conclude, the symptoms of a blood clot in your chest area may be:

  • severe pain in the arms
  • sweating
  • trouble breathing
  • loss of consciousness

Are there any risk factors?

Of course! Even though many of us can suddenly get a blood clot, some people are more exposed to this kind of issue. Below, you can find a list of health conditions and factors that may indicate you have a higher risk of getting a blood clot:

  • cancer
  • cancer treatments
  • atherosclerosis
  • genetic disorders
  • diabetes
  • COVID-19
  • family history of blood clots
  • obesity
  • pregnancy
  • smoking

    Very informative. Recently pain in my left lower leg. Blood flow to my foot monitored to have a faint blood flow. I exercise as much I can before pain makes it difficult to walk. Continuing to monitor until appt in February. I’m quite concerned.

    The article is well written in simple language and easily understandable.
    I had CABG (Bypass Surgery) in 2018. I am taking Clopidogrel and Rosuvastatin once a day. I have now added on my own Nattokinase capsules once a day.
    Hope it is good. I am a diabetic and taking antidiabetic medicines mild dose. For fatty liver 1grade I am taking Saroglitazar 4mg and Ursodeoxycholic acid once daily.
    Any suggestions or remarks.

    I had a problem with my heart beat now and then, it feels like my heart has air pumping through, for maybe 15 seconds. I wore monitors 2 times but nothing shows up. A cardiologist told me to cut my coffee consumption down to 3 cups which seems to be working.
    My father told me rowing a boat was one of the best excercises, which we did when we were young. I still believe that today. Typical rowing machines are not the same.
    Thank you for allowing comments.

    The first time I had blood clots I started with pain in my legs but the pain kept moving up my leg. Eventually I ended up with pain in my groin and they were very concerned about it because it was a deep vein blood clot. I got them from traveling 6 hours and not getting out to walk around. I had a total of 5 blood clots that time. A year later I had knee surgery and about a month later I got pain in my leg and I had 2 that time.

      Theraworx works for my leg cramps. It is a foam that you spray on the cramping area and rub it in. Also drink lots of water, especially coconut water helps me. I take magnesium which I get over the counter in gummy form.

    Unless I missed it, you left out stroke as another symptom of a blood clot. I had a small stroke (small blood clot) about 14 years ago and was hospitalized for two nights, with recurring injections of heparin. I completely recovered; I was lucky.
