So I have googled this numerous times and the only thing I can come up with is one person claiming blood is strawberry jam and then the definition of Congealing blood. So, here I am.
When I get a cut of any sort that is deeper than a small paper cut my blood congeals and becomes kind of jelly-like within seconds. I have never seen this happen to other people. Their blood flows quickly and streams while mine creates this circle of jelly-like blood. It doesn't drip, doesn't run. No matter how deep the cut is.
Anyone know what can cause this?

Most likely the plasma in ur blood is low so therefore ur liver is not giving your blood enough proteins to support itself. Idk for sure, just a theory

Sounds like coagulopathy, its a rare clotting disorder. Here's (http://english.peopledaily.com.cn/200609/06/eng20060906_300076.html) an article I found. Hope this helps. It might also help if you go to see a doctor Lexi, they'll be able to tell you for sure but thats what it sounds like to me.

Yes this is an option but there are many others, the ability for blood to clot has to do with the amount of thrombocytes (platlets) and in order for you to have platlets your liver needs to be able to perform hemolysis, the destruction of blood cells, the dystruction of blood cells in the liver gives you the thrombocytes needed to clot your blood.
To me it seems that you liver might be over-working and providing too much thrombocytes.
Thrombocytopenia may also result from conditions that lead to the excessive breakdown of blood cells in the bloodstream, liver and spleen including:
Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC)
Hemolytic uremic syndrome (rare disease characterized by kidney failure and multiple blood clots)
Hypersplenism (overactive spleen)
Immune- and nonimmune-induced breakdown of blood cells
Immune thrombocytopenic purpura and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (rare conditions in which small blood clots form throughout the body, resulting in low platelet levels)
Medication side effects
Either way you need to talk to you General Practicioner so you can get a referral to a Hematologist.

Your blood clotting that quickly is also a symptom of mutiple myeloma,the same cancer my grandmother died of last weak..but I doubt you have it,i would just go to my normal physician and get it checked out.. :)

Oh that article is creepy. But yeah, that's just great. As soon as I find myself a doctor, I'll go to one, but that'll be a while! Thanks.
