General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this electrocution. Please, always try to take very good care of yourself when dealing with electricity appliances. Bleeding would preset with severe pain and a fall in blood pressure that would most likely send you rushing to the hospital. If you are at home and able to type, there is no internal bleeding. Remember to drink lots of water so as to protect the kidneys just in case some muscles were destroyed.

I hope this helps. I wish you well.
