A member asked:
I have a superficial blood clot in my left arm that sems to be moving lower every few days. is this to be expected? i am treating with aspirin & heat.

Lower?: You mean away from your shoulder (/"core")? If so, that is a bit odd, but at least sounds as is not extending. You are doing right w/aspirin & heat. Will take quite a while to resolve.
