What are the chances that a 17 year old could get blood clots?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Very unusual: It is really unusual unless there is predisposing factor like hypercoagulable disease which increase risk of clot formation or anatomical stenosis/blockage like young athletes with thoracic outlet obstruction.
