A blood clot that doesn't travel is called a thrombus. It forms in a blood vessel and remains attached to the site where it developed, potentially obstructing blood flow. If it dislodges and travels to another part of the body, it becomes an embolus. Thrombi can lead to serious health issues, depending on their location and size.
