At roller derby practice tonight we worked on a hitting drill where I ended up taking a few hard hits to my abdomen. Later on during scrimmage practice I fell hard landing right on my abdomen. It hurt bad and took me a minute to get up and recover. After practice on my way to car I had bad pain, felt like I had to have a bowel movement. I was doubled over. I went back in to the bathroom and nothing happen. Since being home I have had a small amount of diarrhea twice. Each time when I wiped there was bright red blood on toilet paper and I noticed drops of blood in toilet. I am not in severe pain but it is uncomfortable. Should I be worried?
Hello! Thank you for the query. Such bleeding can be caused by intestine injury due to mentioned abdomen hits. Especially that you have some abdominal pain as well. And this bleeding can be only a part of whole bleeding as also spleen or liver can be injured. Please do not ignore your symptoms. Consult your doctor as soon as possible. Blood work and abdominal ultrasound should be done. Hope this will help. Regards.
