At first glance, it may seem as if a severe laceration is relatively harmless, especially when compared to obviously life-altering issues such as brain damage, spinal cord injuries, or psychological trauma. But depending upon the severity of a laceration and how quickly appropriate medical treatment is administered, the harm can spiral beyond the apparent flesh wound.

Lacerations and Complications
Although many of us are accustomed to using the terms “laceration” and “cut” interchangeably, they are, in fact, distinct. Cuts refer to injuries where the skin is cleanly separated by a sharp object. Lacerations are characterized by a jagged wound and are caused by blunt trauma. It is more difficult for the body to repair these uneven tears than it is to repair simple cuts. Some of the complications that may arise from lacerations include:
- Sprained ligaments
- Strained muscles
- Significant scarring
- Septic arthritis
- A variety of serious infections
