Now, when you purge it stresses out every muscle in your abdomen, chest and neck. Your stomach is essentially one big muscle, with a special lining. Purging can cause several things that can cause bleeding. Ulcers, stomach rupture, tear in the stomach lining, tears in the esophagus or it's lining (the tube that leads from your stomach to your mouth), not to mention sores in your mouth, especially around your teeth.
Any of those things could cause the blood you saw when you purged. Anytime you purge blood, no matter what the color, you need to get checked out by a doctor to make sure that it's not an urgent problem.
Don't purge anymore until you can see a doctor. If you start feeling dizzy when you stand up, light headed, nauseous or you feel disoriented go to A&E right away.
