Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The blood vessel contains the blood cells like red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets, which are supplied to various organs of the body. The rupturing of the blood vessels causes the leakage of the blood out of the vessels. The lining of the endothelial cells is damaged during an injury to the blood vessel.
