What Does a Blood Clot Feel Like?
10. Stroke
Blood clots can lead to potentially fatal heart attacks, but this is not the only serious symptom they can cause. If the clot was to block the flow of blood to the brain then it can result in a stroke. While the severity of a stroke can vary, they can be fatal, so they should be taken very seriously indeed.
Symptoms of a stroke include experiencing vision problems and having become easily confused. The patient can have difficulty understanding what is being said, and difficulty speaking. They can also experience numbness on one side of the body. Body parts, including the facial muscles, can droop on one side.
