Internal bleeding

Mar 15, 2010 14:53


Hi!

I have this character that, in present time, has a full frontal car accident. I've searched several injuries and I think I can make it believable. I just have a question about internal bleeding, that I couldn't find.

With what kind of test do they search for internal bleedings? Is this even possible? If found, is there any other way, other than surgery, to fix the bleedings? And how long after would she have to stay in the hospital? Also, would she need check-ups?

I've searched in terms like 'Internal bleeding', 'symptoms internal bleeding', 'surgery after internal bleeding' etc, but I couldn't find it.
English isn't my first language, so maybe I'm not searching in the right terms.
Thanks in advance!
