To answer your question, aspirin can be used as prevention, not necessarily treatment. Depending on the clot, (DVT-Deep Vein Thrombosis or SVT-Superficial Vein Thrombosis), doctors may recomment aspirin to thin the blood. DVTs are typically more harmful because they are in the deeper ventricular system and therefore can lead to important organs (I.e. lungs, which would cause a pulmonary embolism). Superficial VT are also dangerous in their own way. If a SVT goes above the knee/groin area, they can infiltrate the deeper ventricular system and cause the same issues that a DVT can. Hope this helps!<br><b>References : </b><br> First and foremost, if you have an undiagnosed/untreated clot, please see your doctor ASAP.

Doing the wrong thing can cause even more problems. AFAIK, aspirin is only for heart disease. As a blood thinner, I don't know how it would impact a clot.<br><b>References : </b><br> Please contact your doctor for any treatment advice. Doing the wrong thing can cause even more problems.
