Welcome back amaniacs, We all love to sleep and we are all familiar with the numbness of legs that happens when we sit for long hours. So, Why doesn't blood clot while sleeping? You see, When you sleep your blood does not have to flow upwards, your body is mostly straight and you are still moving alot in sleep. So, If you can't move a little, say when your leg is broken then your chances of developing cloths is higher and that's why they'll give you shots to ease the blood flow every day in the hospital. On the other hand, While sitting the legs aren't moved much, they are angled and the blood have to flow upwards. This prevents the blood from moving up, eventually increasing the chances of a blood clot. Hence blood does not clot while sleeping, but it does clot while sitting for a long time.
