Blunt Force Trauma

Blunt trauma (as opposed to penetrating trauma) can occur with vehicular impacts, falling from a height or being stepped on.  Very serious internal injuries can occur without any visible wound or mark on the outside. 

This can include internal bleeding, bruising or bleeding into the lungs, ruptured urinary bladders and damage to other internal organs, including heart and brain. 

Early intervention usually results in better outcome.
