Does bleeding invalidate wudu?
Short answer
The cited answer states that there is no clear evidence that blood coming from somewhere other than the private parts invalidates wudu. If the bleeding is heavy, renewing wudu is safer as a precaution and to avoid scholarly disagreement.
Evidence and explanation
The answer is based on the absence of clear proof that such bleeding invalidates wudu, while distinguishing this from istiḥadah and other relevant cases.

Original answer — Shaykh ‘Abd al-‘Aziz ibn Baz
هل خروج الدم ينقض الوضوء؟ — فتوى ٢٣١٧٣- Question
«خروج الدم هل ثبت فيه دليل أنه ناقض للوضوء؟»

- From the text of the answer
«ما أعلم فيه شيئًا واضحًا، إلا إذا كان مِن الفَرْج كالمستحاضة، أما إذا كان من غير الفَرْج فالأحوط فيه الوضوء إذا كَثُر، والقليل يُعفى عنه، لكن إذا كثر فالأحوط فيه الوضوء خروجًا من الخلاف.»
English translation (unreviewed): I do not know anything clear on it, unless it is from the private part like the woman with istihadah. As for if it is from other than the private part, it is more cautious to perform wudu' if it is much, and a little is excused; but if it is much, it is more cautious to perform wudu' in order to leave the disagreement.
