Abdominal Trauma – Causes, Warning Signs & Modern Surgical Care in Thane
Abdominal trauma is any injury to the organs, blood vessels, or tissues inside the abdomen. It can occur from accidents, falls, blows to the stomach, sports injuries, or internal medical conditions. Some cases appear mild on the outside but may lead to severe internal bleeding or organ damage inside — making early diagnosis and immediate treatment extremely important.
At Dr. Ankur Surgical Clinic & Aayush Multispecialty Hospital, Thane, expert trauma evaluation and advanced surgical care ensure patients receive rapid, accurate, and lifesaving treatment.
✔ What Is Abdominal Trauma?
Abdominal trauma refers to any injury involving the stomach area, including:
- Blunt force trauma (accidents, falls, sports impact)
- Penetrating injuries (sharp objects)
- Organ rupture
- Internal bleeding
- Muscle tears
Even small injuries can hide serious internal damage, so professional evaluation is essential.
✔ Types of Abdominal Trauma
1. Blunt Abdominal Trauma
Most common. Caused by:
- Road accidents
- Slipping or falling
- Punch or kick injuries
- Sports injuries
It can damage internal organs without any external bleeding.
2. Penetrating Abdominal Trauma
Occurs when an object enters the abdomen (knife, rod, metal fragments, etc.)
This often needs emergency surgery.
✔ Common Symptoms

- Severe abdominal pain
- Swelling or bloating
- Bruising around stomach
- Vomiting or nausea

Any of these symptoms after an injury require urgent medical attention.
