Do you really know for sure it's internal bleeding? Sometimes a gecko's liver will show up dark in the belly. I understand how difficult it is to get him to a vet, but we're not miracle workers. If there truly is internal bleeding, there's nothing anyone besides a vet can do (and the vet may not be able to do much). If there truly is internal bleeding, I would imagine (as a layperson anyway, I'm not a vet) that the gecko is dead by now or nearly dead. If it's still doing well, I would guess that it is not internal bleeding. If you truly can't get it to a vet, keep it warm, keep offering food, try not to bother it too much, and hope for the best.
