WASHINGTON — Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton continues to recover in a New York hospital where she is being treated for a blood clot in her head.

Her doctors said blood thinners are being used to dissolve the clot and they are confident she will make a full recovery. Clinton didn’t suffer a stroke or neurological damage from the clot, which formed after she suffered a concussion during a fainting spell at her home in early December, doctors said in a statement Monday.
