DESCRIPTION

In case of a traumatic injury, as an accident of motorcar or a fall, the bled intern cannot be apparent of immediate form. Nevertheless, considering the dangers of the bled intern, it is necessary to suspect it if some of the following signs is observed:

• Bled of the ears, nose, rectum, vagina or vomiting of blood or blood in the sputum.
• Contusion of the neck, of the thorax or the abdomen.
• Wounds that have penetrated in the skull, in the breast or in the abdomen.
• Tumefaction or abdominal pain, often accompanied by spasm of the abdominal muscles.

The internal hemorrhage can produce shock (collapse) because the blood volume in the body becomes a minor. The person can feel weakness, be and anxiety (sensation of imminent death). The skin is cold and the respiration becomes rapid and superficial; the rapid and weak pulse; and quakes and big anxiety appear. It is possible to come to the loss of conscience, especially when one is standing up or seated, with recovery on having lain down. The elevation of the legs is very suitable in case of shock.

Any shock situation needs immediate urgent medical attention.
