Blood clots actually is not a blood disorder....this is a natural process in which helps to stop the bleeding after a blood vessel has been injured...it will create a protective scab on a wounded blood vessel that helps it to heal.If our body does not have the ability to form a blood clot, we would probably bleed to death even after a minor cut.

However, there are also situations that blood clot can cause medical problems. This is when, it blocks a blood flow through an artery or vein. Because when blood clot, block a flow on the artery of the heart or brain..This can lead to Heart attach or Stoke.
