A blood clot makes it difficult for blood to circulate normally. As a result, some blood vessels become full of blood, while others suffer from a lack of blood.

This can be manifested by changes in the color of the skin: in some parts of the affected limb it turns red or blue, in others, on the contrary, it turns pale.
