an injury to living tissue caused by a cut, blow, or

broken.
Open wound
An open wound is an injury involving an external or internal break in
body tissue, usually involving the skin.
Nearly everyone will experience an open wound at some point in
their lives. Most open wounds are minor and can be treated at home.

Falls, accidents with sharp objects or tools, and car accidents are the
most common causes of open wounds.
 Types of open wound
There are five types of open wounds, which are classified depending on their
cause.

Abrasion
An abrasion occurs when the skin rubs or scrapes against a rough or hard surface.
Road rash is an example of an abrasion. Theres usually not a lot of bleeding, but
the wound needs to be scrubbed and cleaned to avoid infection.
Incision
A sharp object, such as a knife, shard of glass, or razor blade, causes an incision.
Incisions bleed a lot and quickly. A deep incision can damage tendons, ligaments,
and muscles.
Laceration
A laceration is a deep cut or tearing of the skin. Accidents
with knives, tools, and machinery are frequent causes of
lacerations. The bleeding is rapid and extensive.
Puncture
A puncture is a small hole caused by a long, pointy object, such
as a nail, needle, or ice pick. Sometimes, a bullet can cause a
puncture wound. Punctures may not bleed much, but these
wounds can be deep enough to damage internal organs.
 Avulsion
An avulsion is a partial or complete tearing away of skin and tissue.
Avulsions usually occur during violent accidents, such as body-
crushing accidents, explosions, and gunshots. They bleed heavily and
rapidly.
