Internal bleeding may occur anywhere and bleeding into joints is common.The severity of symptoms vary. Bleeding is the main symptom of the disease. It is often first seen when an infant is circumcised. Other bleeding problems are seen when the infant starts crawling and walking. Mild cases may go unnoticed until later in life. Symptoms may first occur after surgery or injury. Internal bleeding may occur anywhere. Symptoms can include:

Bleeding into joints with associated pain and swelling
Blood in the urine or stool
Bruising
