SPOT A CLOT

 

Blood clots can be difficult to diagnose because they often mimic the signs and symptoms of other ailments. It’s important to be able to recognize blood clot signs and symptoms so you can seek care promptly.

The Rowan Foundation came up with a simple educational tool that uses just two letters — S and C — to help people “Spot a Clot,” or to be able to identify quickly the most common and potentially life-threatening symptoms of a blood clot.
