eli5 In movies and video games and stuff, characters get stabbed in the gut all the time and this usually causes them to puke up blood instantly. People have told me this is realistic and have tried to explain how it happens but I never get it. How does a stab cause blood to come out of their mouth?
In: Biology
Your stomach gets punctured and fills with blood. Usually a stab wound releases a lot of blood internally with veins and arteries being cut. Things inside your body are usually pretty well contained, but once things get cut, blood can flood anywhere.
