A member asked:
I think part of my blood clot came off, is this a serious issue?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Blood clot concern: If a blood clot is located in the heart or on the inside of a blood vessel and breaks off it usually goes to a distant tissue or organ system. There it can interfere with blood getting to that tissue or organ system and cause damage. It is, in general, suggestive of a serious condition.
