10 Causes of Hematoma

Cause #2: Severe Physical Trauma
The world can be a very dangerous place, with potential hazards on every corner. Just a moment of lapsed concentration can lead to an error that causes us to experience a severe physical trauma. This can include incidents such as car accidents, falls from high places, and even being attacked with a weapon.
Such traumas are likely to cause considerable bleeding, inside and out. They will often cause hematomas that we recognize as bruising, as well as much deeper inside the body. Deeper hematomas might require surgery to stop the bleeding and extract the excess blood. They might not always be visible externally, but this doesn’t mean they are not dangerous.
