As below

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
The vagina is much inside the vulva, than you think.
The outside genitals and private parts that you can see, and what probably got hit during your game , is called the vulva.
The vagina is the inner muscular tube ( wherein sexual penetration occurs ), if you get what I mean.
So did you really get hit in the vagina, or on the outside ?
I mean , are you sure, it was the injury that caused the bleeding ?
When was your last period ?
Generally do you have regular cycles ?
Do you have any pain ?
Have you had such kind of erratic bleeding earlier ?
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Take care.
