Stab Wounds

Stab wounds are injuries caused by a pointed object, like a knife or similar implement, penetrating the skin and possibly underlying tissues. These wounds can vary in depth and severity, potentially damaging muscles, organs, or blood vessels. The severity depends on the force, location, and object used. Immediate medical attention is essential to control bleeding, prevent infection, and assess internal injury. Treatment may involve wound cleaning, stitches, or surgery in more serious cases. Prompt care is critical to reduce complications and ensure proper healing.
