Best Answer

External bleeding are caused due to many reasons -

1. Abrasion - Also called a graze, this is caused by the transverse action of a foreign object against the skin, and usually does not penetrate below the epidermis.

2. Excoriation - In common with Abrasion, this is caused by the mechanical destruction of the skin, although it usually has an underlying medical cause.

3. Laceration - Irregular wound caused by blunt impact to soft tissue overlying hard tissue or tearing such as in childbirth.

4. Incision - A clean 'surgical' wound, caused by a sharp object, such as a knife.

5. Puncture Wound - Caused by an object penetrated the skin and underlying layers, such as a nail, needle or knife.
