Pulmonary thrombosis is when a blood clot from another part of the body (usually the deep veins of the leg) dislodges from the place of origin and settles somewhere in the lungs. This blocks blood flow into the lungs. It is treated by a clot buster in the short term to bust the clot and if it is a chronic problem they are given Warfarin or something similar to prevent future clots

Fibrinolysis
A tangled mesh of blood cells is called a blood clot.
A fixed blood clot is called an embolus.
This swelling occurs due to osmosis, where water moves from an area of lower solute concentration (outside the clot) to an area of higher solute concentration (inside the clot). This process helps to expand and enlarge the clot, further obstructing the blood vessel.
It is know as 'bowled'
