Hemorrhage (bleeding)

Hemorrhage is the loss of blood from a damaged blood vessel. A bruise is a mild example, whereas damage to an interior organ is a major one. Be aware of the symptoms of internal bleeding even though external bleeding is obvious and could be simpler to detect.

Hemorrhage caused by Yellow Fever can be extremely serious and even fatal. Bleeding in the mouth, nose, eyes, and gastrointestinal tract cause vomit containing blood. Besides kidney failure, delirium and hiccups are other side effects. You should see a doctor as soon as you can if you experience yellow fever symptoms while traveling in a region where the virus is present or after just leaving one of these areas.

Your doctor will want to know exactly where you have been and what symptoms you are having in order to determine whether you have yellow fever. A blood test is required for the diagnosis confirmation.
