Bleeds can occur anywhere inside or outside of the body. Bleeds on the outside of the body are much easier to identify as signs are visible (i.e. blood, purple and/or dark blue bruising, swelling, etc.)
Signs of an internal bleed may include: swelling, redness, pain, warm to the area, decreased mobility in extremities, bright red or tar-like, black stool (Gastrointestinal bleed), confusion, blurry vision, slurred speech, headache, etc. (Brain bleed)
