Does blood clot indicate cancer?
Patient: My friends daughter has a blood clot in her arm and the drs can t dissolve it. She is being sent to a pulmonary specialist in Boston. They are also are checking her for cancer. What happens if they can t dissolve it? Are there any cancers this could be. She is only 30 years old. I am not paying for an answer. I will keep researching. Thank you Doctor: Hi, dearI have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. She may have some clotting diorder or clotting tendency.  So there is blood clot.  It may be due to cancer or other disorder.  So she should search the cause.  For blood clot she should take heparin injection.  Later on she should take warferin for long time.  These all are prescription based medicine so consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer.
