How To Describe Blood In Writing Written By Braggs Sevoy1989 Thursday, December 29, 2022 Add Comment Edit Alesia Pen names: AJ Connor, Carey Connolly Contributor I've been trying to research this, but I've been coming upwardly dry and I desire to write this without it beingness tacky or unrealistic. Background: Main character is waking upwards from unconsciousness. They took a pretty skillful whack to the caput and I already accept all the black, spinning, nausea, encephalon fog worked out. during the time they were KO, one of their assailants kicked them in the ribs several times basically merely to be a wiggle. That beingness said, is it plausible to regain consciousness and immediately showtime coughing claret? I've heard that might exist a little too much injury though (punctured lung?). Go on in mind where the MC is beingness held, there'southward hostiles nearby and NO medical attention to exist had. Can you cough up blood in that situation without having something as astringent as a punctured lung or something else you lot would demand to seek immediate medical attention for otherwise death would be certain?

On a similar level someone being kicked while on the ground may notice blood when they urinate as well, merely non be in danger of dying – though of course they could be. You wouldn't want to write that they are coughing up lots of claret, or night blood either, simply nix incorrect with them coughing up some blood without beingness in need of emergency medical care.
