In medical science, Gastrointestinal Bleeding (GIB) is a condition that involves bleeding in the digestive tract. The digestive tract includes the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine (colon), rectum, and anus. GIB can occur anywhere along this tract, and it can be classified as either upper gastrointestinal bleeding or lower gastrointestinal bleeding, depending on the location of the bleeding.
GIB can have several causes, including ulcers, tumors, inflammation, trauma, and vascular malformations. Certain medications, such as aspirin, NSAIDs, and blood thinners, can also increase the risk of GIB. Heavy alcohol use, liver disease, and blood clotting disorders can also contribute to the development of GIB.
