Causes of Internal Bleeding
Internal bleeding, a condition where blood leaks into the tissues or cavities of the body, can be caused by a variety of factors[1]. The causes of internal bleeding are as varied as the symptoms and can range from external trauma to internal conditions or drug overuse. Trauma is one of the most common causes of internal bleeding. It can be categorized into two main types:
- Blunt trauma occurs when a body part collides with something else at high speed, causing blood vessels inside the body to be torn or crushed. Examples include car accidents, physical assaults, and falls.
- Penetrating trauma happens when a foreign object penetrates the body, tearing a hole in one or more blood vessels. This can result from gunshot wounds, stabbings, or falling onto a sharp object.
These types of trauma can damage almost any organ or blood vessel, leading to internal bleeding. Serious sources of internal bleeding due to trauma include head trauma (intracranial hemorrhage), bleeding around the lungs (hemothorax), bleeding around the heart (hemopericardium and cardiac tamponade), tears in large blood vessels near the center of the body (aorta, superior and inferior vena cava, and their major branches), and damage to the abdomen, such as liver or spleen lacerations or perforation of other organs.
Bleeding disorders, such as hemophilia, can also lead to internal bleeding. This condition is caused when blood does not clot as it should, due to the lack of blood cells called platelets or proteins called clotting factors. The overuse of certain drugs, including blood thinners like warfarin and anti-platelet drugs like Plavix (clopidogrel), can also increase the risk of bleeding. Even nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like aspirin and Advil (ibuprofen) can cause internal bleeding if used excessively, especially in individuals with peptic ulcers or any other condition that causes gastric (stomach) bleeding.
Viral hemorrhagic fevers are a less common but potentially serious cause of internal bleeding. Certain viruses can cause small blood clots to form in blood vessels throughout the body, reducing the availability of platelets to stop bleeding. These fevers are most common in Africa and include Chikungunya fever, Dengue fever, Ebola virus, Hantavirus, Lassa fever, Rift Valley Fever, and Yellow fever.
Organ damage or a bleeding disorder can also lead to internal bleeding. Conditions like gastritis can increase the risk of bleeding, and organ damage can result in internal bleeding if the damage affects blood vessels or organs that are prone to bleeding.
