Head belleds do not always result in death. It depends on the type of bleed? How big the bleed is as a small bleed will sometimes stop on its own. What caused the bleed? Whether or not the doctors can operate to stop the bleed.

Bleeds caused by trauma are more problematic then say bleeds caused by a stroke as generally there are other systems hurt in the trauma as well. Not all strokes are fatal even if there is a head bleed. It all depends on the type of bleed and if any type of intervention can stop the bleed.

In many cases the bleed causes other problems and the patient remains in a coma for long periods of time or remains in a vegetative state. When death occurs it is from system failure and not directly the result of the bleed.

Death that is a direct result from a bleed can take anywhere from hours, days or even weeks.It all depends on the patients will to live and how hard the doctors fight to save the patient.

If you think you have a head bleed get to a hospital ER or call 911.

It depends greatly on how quickly you are bleeding, where you are bleeding from and weather or not the blood has a place to flow or if pressure is building up.

For example, if the membrane around your brain is bleeding, drop everything and go to the emergency room. If you're bleeding from your ear, you'll be fine, just get to the doctors asap.

It depends on where and how bad it is. If you get a AAA (Abdominal aortic aneurysm), it might kill you within minutes or a half hour,at the most 8 hours or less
