Blood in vomit :
Blood in vomit can be a disturbing and concerning symptom of underlying gastrointestinal diseases. It is medically termed Hematemesis and requires immediate medical attention to rule out the causes. If the blood in vomit appears as bright red, it may indicate active bleeding, and if it appears as dark red or coffee ground lumps, then it may indicate older inactive bleeding. If there is severe blood loss through vomiting, blood transfusions are readily conducted and then diagnostic procedures such as upper endoscopy are performed to rule out the underlying medical conditions. Peptic ulcers, gastritis, Mallory-Weiss tears, alcoholic liver disease/scarring and blood disorders affecting the gastric tract may cause blood in vomit. The treatment regimen involves medical management of gastrointestinal conditions, surgical procedures and other alternative treatment approaches. Regular follow-ups with the concerned specialist are mandatory to avoid further complications.
