Any portion of the body can develop a blood clot, which can cause organ damage, heart attacks, strokes, and even coma or death. Your arteries or veins in your brain, kidney, heart, lungs, and limbs might become blocked by blood clots. The brain and heart can clot excessively when certain conditions like atherosclerosis, diabetes, heart failure, arrhythmia, and obesity/overweight are present. Blood clots in the legs, or deep vein thrombosis, are a medical disorder where blood clots form in deep veins. Leg soreness or edema are among the symptoms.
