Is blood clots in brain occurs due to high bp?

Not necessarily. Blood clots in the brain, also known as cerebral thrombosis or cerebral infarction, can have various causes, and high blood pressure (hypertension) is just one of the risk factors. While uncontrolled hypertension can damage blood vessels and increase the risk of blood clot formation, other factors such as age, smoking, diabetes, obesity, certain heart conditions, and genetic disorders can also contribute to the development of blood clots in the brain. A combination of these factors can increase the likelihood of a blood clot forming and causing a stroke. Therefore, it's important for individuals with high blood pressure to manage their condition and lifestyle effectively, but also be aware of other risk factors and seek medical attention if any symptoms of a stroke occur.
