Hello there, I am a guy who is 23 years old. I have one question for you. What is embolism exactly? Every answer will do because I don't have a clue. Thank you in advance for everything you say. I heard that somebody I know is suffering from the disease. That is the reason why I need this answer.

Hello there, embolism is a term which is used when embolus move from one part of the body and cause a blockage of some blood vessel in another part. This shouldn't be mixed with thrombus which forms a clot within the same blood vessel. Except from blood clots, other embolic materials are: fat, air, talc and other embolism. Emboli which are starting in a heart can cause emboli in any part of the body. That is all I know.
