Is it common for hickeys to cause blood clots or strokes?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No. These blood stains are localized under the skin surface. The blood breaks down over time and the staining is gradually removed. This does not travel to or form a clot inside an artery which would be the origin of a stroke.
