My mother is almost 89 and two weeks ago a blood thinner caused internal bleeding. She almost died, initially I was told the condition she was in wasn’t survivable. She required 3 transfusions back to back in the ER ICU. We do have blood all over within our body but within our circulatory system. When you’re bleeding internally something is injured/ruptured/damaged, so blood is leaving the areas it normally flows to and from and instead filling up body cavities. And you typically expell that blood. It’s no longer in your circulatory system. You’re not getting blood to the vital areas you need to either. You may vomit blood, or defecate blood, it’s often called “bleeding out” with good reason. Never have I been so scared in all my life
