5.Side Effects of Blood Thinners
People who take these medications may get bruises often or bleed more easily. When you take certain ones, you’ll need to watch what you eat. And you may need to go to a lab regularly to get your blood checked. Newer medications make it harder to stop bleeding if you have an accident.
6.Internal Bleeding
Blood thinners can also make it easier to bleed inside your body, where you can’t see it. Bleeding in your belly can cause pain, vomit that’s red or looks like coffee grounds, and bright red or black stools. Bleeding in your brain can bring on severe headaches, vision changes, unnatural movements, and confusion. Call 911 or go to the emergency room if you notice any of these symptoms.
