Wounds
A wound is any type of injury that causes a break in the skin. It includes lacerations (cuts), abrasions (scrapes), and contusions (bruising wounds), as well as knife and gunshot wounds.
Every wound is susceptible to infection, but the skin has a remarkable ability to heal itself if the wound is cleaned of bacteria and protected during the healing process. Wounds also heal faster if the body is supplied with excellent nutrition during healing.
Any wound that penetrates beyond the outermost layer of skin may require medical attention, including sutures and possibly innoculation against tetanus, a potentially fatal bacterial disease.
