Is It Serious To Have Blood In Bowels Following A Car Accident?
I was in a car accident on Tuesday, SUV hit be full speed behind as I was stop. I went to ER by ambulance couldn't move. I was diagnosed with Lumbar Herniated disc and whiplash. Yesterday noticed bowel movement had a little blood. Today had had blood again and server crapping that I couldn't stand up. Also, when I cough it hurts but I am thinking from the seat belt that is? Is this normal or should I go back to the ER? I will call my DR in the am.
