Blood Loss — Which Doctor Should I See?

Blood loss becomes concerning when you lose more than a small amount visibly. Contact a doctor for persistent bleeding, large amounts of blood, or blood in urine, stool, or vomit.

Common causes include injuries, heavy menstrual bleeding, ulcers, hemorrhoids, nosebleeds, and dental procedures. Internal bleeding can occur from conditions like gastritis or aneurysms.

Seek emergency care immediately if you experience severe bleeding, dizziness, fainting, chest pain, shortness of breath, or pale skin. Heavy uncontrolled bleeding requires urgent medical attention.
