Common Symptoms Of Hyperlipidemia

Formation Of Blood Clots

If circulation is not at its peak, blood clots can form. Blood naturally begins to clot once it slows down due to the presence of fibrin and platelets, which work together to make a clot. This is a good thing when a cut happens because the body can clot the blood and seal off the wound to prevent blood loss. It is not good, however, when the blood starts to pool in the enlarged heart, which has grown in size to fight against increased blood pressure. Another place that can form blood clots is within the deep veins of a leg, which is also known as deep vein thrombosis. These clots may be stuck temporarily and grow in size, but they can break free and travel to the heart, lungs, or the brain. As clots become bigger and bigger, they can stop the life-giving flow of blood in the arteries and veins.
