The most common sign of internal bleeding is a simple bruise (contusion), it indicates bleeding into the skin (soft tissues).
Bleeding can occur inside the body (internal), outside the body (external) or both.

 BLEEDING AND HEMORRHAGES
There are 13 major pressure points that an be used to control bleeding, For example if the injury is on the extremities apply pressure to the brachial or femoral artery to reduce blood flow.
The patient feels sore, lame, bruised and does not want to be approached.
Keep the bleeding patient still and as calm as possible.

 BLEEDING
If the bleeding continues indirect pressure should be applied to the artery at the next pressure point, but this should only be done by someone who has been trained in first aid.
This is bleeding within the body that is invisible from the outside appearance of the casualty.
You should also check for indications of injury on the patient’s body, such as bruising and tenderness.

This can occur internally (when blood leaks from blood vessels inside the body), externally through a natural opening (such as the vagina, mouth, or rectum), or externally through a break in the skin.
This can range from medications and intravenous fluids, to use of an internal scope (endoscope), to surgery.

After the bandage is in place, it is important to check the pulse to make sure circulation is not interrupted.
Steps 1 and 2 should be continued with use of the pressure points.
For wounds of the arms or hands, pressure points are located on the inside of the wrist ( radial artery-where a pulse is checked) or on the inside of the upper arm (brachial artery).

 Anti-Depressants 'Cause Internal Bleeding'
Writing in the Drug and Therapeutic Bulletin, they said the drugs should not be given to 'at risk' groups.
Joe Collier, editor of the Drug and Therapeutic Bulletin, said the risks of bleeding were small.
"On current evidence, we suggest that SSRIs should be avoided if possible, or used with caution, in patients aged over 80 years, those with prior upper gastrointestinal bleeding or in those also taking aspirin or another NSAID," they wrote.

 Stopping Internal Bleeding Without Surgery
It may sound like something out of Star Trek, but researchers at the University of Washington’s Applied Physics Laboratory are working on a device that could find and stop internal bleeding, without surgery.
At the December meeting of the Acoustical Society of America (December 3-7), Dr. Shahram Vaezy and his colleagues will present research on using traditional ultrasound to image internal bleeding combined with High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) as an effective method of stopping the bleeding.
The HIFU treatment does not require an incision because ultrasound passes through tissue, allowing researchers to focus the cauterizing heat at the point inside the body where they want to stop the bleeding.

 Vioxx.ux.com - Lawyers - NSAID's Linked to Intestinal Bleeding
Aspirin, aspirin-containing medicines, and various other medicines (particularly those used for arthritis) can cause stomach ulcers or inflammation (gastritis) that can lead to internal bleeding in the stomach and intestine.
Vioxx, a drug produced by Merick and Co., has been recently pulled from the shelf due to a study that has shown Vioxx to increase the chance of a heart attack by 27 percent, and can double the chance of internal bleeding in users.
Internal bleeding if not properly treated or diagnosed can be fatal.

If you are not sure, assume the worst and treat for internal bleeding, always err on the side of caution.
Following the above information should give you the necessary clues as to whether internal bleeding may be present.
Concealed Bleeding is harder to diagnose because we can't see it, but if you take a full history from the patient, the patient's family or bystanders at the scene, you should get a better picture of what injuries might be hidden from you.

 New Scientist Breaking News - Look in the eye reveals internal bleeding
"The blood pressure then drops through the floor, and by that time, they're very sick." A steadily increasing pulse rate is another sign of internal bleeding, but it is unreliable, he says, since pain and shock can also increase it.
This type of injury is an invisible, insidious killer - by the time most doctors spot it, it is usually too late for the patient.
Diagnosing internal bleeding is difficult because of the way the body reacts to it.

 Antidepressants Can Cause Internal Bleeding - Study (Print Version)
CHICAGO (Reuters) - Some popular antidepressant drugs can cause internal bleeding similar to that triggered by aspirin and related painkillers, researchers said on Monday.
But the COX-2 drugs were found to raise the risk of heart attacks and strokes.
A review of the medical records of 549 patients admitted to hospitals for acute gastrointestinal bleeding found that ongoing use of such antidepressants caused a risk of bleeding similar to that caused by the regular use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, or NSAIDs, such as aspirin, ibuprofen and naproxen.

A minor case of internal bleeding is the ecchymosis (bruise): blood expands under the skin, causing a blue stain.
It is not possible to recognise an internal bleeding without specific medical investigation.

Acoustic hemostasis may provide an effective method in surgery and prehospital settings for treating bleeding in trauma and elective surgery patients.
Both thermal and mechanical mechanisms of HIFU appear to be responsible for achieving hemostasis.
Conventional B-mode ultrasound imaging and Doppler appear to provide a effective visualization, targeting, and monitoring methods when extracorporeal application, in case of internal bleeding, is desired.

 THE MERCK MANUAL--SECOND HOME EDITION, Internal Bleeding in Ch. 299, First Aid
However, the person may be distracted from this pain by other injuries or may be unable to express pain because of confusion, drowsiness, or unconsciousness.
Initially, internal bleeding itself causes no symptoms, although an injured organ that is bleeding is often painful.
Heavy internal bleeding may occur in the abdominal cavity, chest cavity, digestive tract, or tissues surrounding broken bones.

 BBC NEWS Health Eye scan warns of internal bleeding
If there is less oxygen available - or there are subtle changes in blood pressure which might indicate an internal bleed, the eye is still likely to strip away the same amount of oxygen from the blood.
The new test checks the concentration of oxygen in the eye, which, they say, gives a reliable clue to the state of the patient.
Accident and emergency specialists can find it hard to identify patients who are bleeding internally.
