The main causes of blood vessel blockage are increased blood lipids, damage to the endothelium of blood vessels, and blood clotting disorders.
1. Increased blood lipids: cholesterol is involved in the composition of cell membranes, but if there are too many lipids, there will be deposits, leading to changes in blood flow or even blocked, then the risk of plaque formation increases significantly, which will lead to blood vessel blockage.
2. Damaged vascular endothelium: the normal vascular endothelium is smooth, due to elevated blood pressure and other reasons lead to vascular endothelium damage, in which case cholesterol and other substances in the bloodstream will enter the damaged parts, in the long run will form plaques, when plaques accumulate after the obstruction of blood circulation resulting in vascular blockage.
3. Coagulation dysfunction: when the body’s coagulation function is impaired, the risk of forming blood clots will increase, and the formation of blood clots will also lead to blood vessel blockage.
If you have a blood vessel blockage, you should consult a doctor.
