Yes, a blood clot can dislodge after a week, particularly if it is not properly managed or if there are changes in blood flow or pressure. This dislodgement can lead to serious complications, such as a pulmonary embolism if the clot travels to the lungs. It's important for individuals with blood clots to follow their healthcare provider's recommendations to minimize risks. If there are any concerning symptoms, such as sudden shortness of breath or chest pain, immediate medical attention is essential.
