A blood clot can form when a blood vessel is injured or when there isn't an acute injury.
This happens when factors in the blood make it more likely to clot.
Lifestyle factors also contribute to a person's risk of blood clots.
Smoking raises the risk by increasing inflammation in the body and making platelets more reactive.
As many as 100,000 die of blood clots each year in the U.S. Send us your questions about how the human body works to [email protected] with the subject line "Health Desk Q ," and you may see your question answered on the website!.
