Hemorrhage Subcapsular

Hemorrhages: symptoms, treatment and causes

Hemorrhage is the release of blood from small blood vessels into the surrounding tissue. The appearance of hemorrhages is influenced by various factors, for example: trauma, rupture of a vessel, physical activity, poisoning, etc. Different types of hemorrhages can occur for different reasons, but most often they are caused by injury and physical stress.

Types of hemorrhage

- Subcutaneous hemorrhages. Occurs due to injuries to the surface of the body and internal organs. Small pinpoint bluish spots form under the skin. Often the site of such an injury is various joints and areas of the body that experience great stress during movement. This could be the elbow or knee joints, as well as the lumbar area. Sometimes subcutaneous hemorrhages occur for no obvious reason and are discovered by chance during an examination by medical workers. Such places acquire a pronounced blue color, often noticeable under the skin, and when pressed on them the skin turns red; - Intramuscular hemorrhages also occur as a result of injuries. If such injuries are minor, then hemorrhages appear a few hours after the injury. With deep injuries, hemorrhage does not occur immediately. Usually, after a few days, hyperemic hematoma swellings of the muscles can be detected. This state of the body is sometimes regarded as severe muscle inflammation and treatment is prescribed using anti-inflammatory drugs; - Hemorrhages on the skin usually indicate various blood diseases. May appear in the form of numerous small purple dots, spots or larger formations. Such formations occur more often on the buttocks, back and legs (in the calves and thighs). The localization of hemorrhages is directly related to the physiological direction of the flow of venous blood to the heart;

Diseases that cause bleeding:

Venous telangiectasia. A rare vascular anomaly, which is characterized by the presence of avascular veins within the skin. The disease is very rare in children, with multiple connections of veins appearing on the face, neck and body. Treatment involves surgically removing the affected tissue; Varicose veins. It, in turn, represents an abnormal expansion of veins and the formation of trophic changes in the skin; Thrombophlebitis. A disease in which a vein in the legs becomes inflamed and becomes covered with a blood clot. Therapy of the disease is based, first of all, on the introduction into the inflamed area of ​​the blood of drugs that dilute fibrin clots. If surgery is required, it involves cutting the vein to repair it;
