Can a blood clot in the lungs travel to the brain?
A blood clot in the lungs, known as a pulmonary embolism, typically originates from a clot in the deep veins of the legs or other parts of the body. While it can cause serious complications in the lungs, it does not travel to the brain. Clots that affect the brain usually originate from the heart or blood vessels in the neck. Therefore, a pulmonary embolism cannot directly lead to a clot in the brain.

I have recently been treated for high BP and I am now having little stabbing pains in the left front of my neck just below where it meets the jaw and I want to know if they're related?
Your treatment for high blood pressure is unlikely to have any relationship to any pains in your neck. In that spot you have a lymph node that could be infected from a bad tooth. The infection could cause trouble in your lymph node. You also have your carotid artery in that area. Part of the reason for the blood pressure treatment is to dissolve the clot in your arteries before they break lose and cause a stroke.
