A deep cut can be caused by any sharp object impacting your skin, including something as simple as a corner on a wall or something designed to cut, like a knife. Whatever the cause, a deep cut is painful, can bleed profusely, and may need immediate medical attention. If you or someone you are with has a deep cut, you need to assess the severity of the wound and then treat the injury accordingly.
Check the wound to see how deep it is; if you need to see a doctor, rinse the cut with water, but don’t attempt to clean it with household products.
For minor deep cuts, clean it with soap and water and apply pressure to stop the bleeding, dress the wound, and keep an eye out for infection.
For a severe cut, call emergency services; elevate the wound, apply pressure with a clean pad or bandage, and monitor the patient’s breathing.
If you can see fat, muscle, or bone through your cut, or if the cut is wide and jagged, you will most likely need stitches. If you are unsure, you should check with a doctor or nurse.
Signs that it is a problem needing quick attention can include any or a combination of the following: extreme pain, a lot of bleeding, signs of shock (such as cold, sweaty skin, feeling cold, or paleness of skin and appearance).
You know a cut is through the skin if you can see fat (yellow-tan, lumpy tissue), muscle (deep-red, stringy tissue), or bone (tan-white, hard surface). However, any cut that is more than three centimeters long or 1/2 inch deep requires medical attention.
If a cut does not go all the way through the skin, it does not need stitches, and can be cared for at home.
Prepare a serious wound for travel to a doctor.
If you believe your cut needs emergency medical attention, there are a few things you can do to care for the wound before traveling to the emergency room. Quickly rinse the wound under water to wash away any loose debris or dirt. Try to wipe any debris or dirt away from the injury site first with sterile gauze to ensure that the water does not wash the debris into the wound. Next, apply pressure with a clean cloth or bandage and continue to hold pressure as you get transported to the emergency room.
Wash it well with soap and water for at least 5 to 10 minutes. Any type of soap and clean water is generally fine. Studies have shown that there is no significant difference if you use antiseptic solutions like hydrogen peroxide or antimicrobial soap for a generally clean cut.
The key is to use copious amounts of irrigation. If there is dirt, glass, or another object in the cut that does not wash out easily, or if the wound is from a dirty or rusty object or animal bite, you should call your doctor.
Apply pressure to stop the bleeding.
After the cut is clean, press a clean cloth or bandage to the area for at least 15 minutes. You can also help slow the bleeding by holding the cut above the level of your heart.
To prevent the clotting blood from coming off when you remove the pressure dressing, you can use a nonstick cloth like Telfa gauze.
If the cut continues to bleed after this, call your doctor.
It is important to get medical personal on the scene as quickly as possible. If you and the injured person are alone, you need to get extreme bleeding under control before going for help.
Place gloves on if you are treating someone else.
It is important to keep a barrier between you and someone else's blood. Latex gloves will protect you from any possible transfer of disease from the other person's blood.
Check the severity of the wound and the injured person's responses to the injury.
Also check the patient's breathing and circulation. Ask the person to lay down or sit down if possible, to allow the person to rest and relax.
Check it to see what the problem is. Cut away clothing, if needed, so that you can see the wound. Be careful to avoid getting debris in the wound as you cut away the clothing.
Get stitches, or staples, applied to a severe wound by a medical professional.
If your cut is deep, wide, or jagged, your doctor may decide that you need stitches (a.k.a. sutures) or staples for it to heal well. When a doctor stitches or staples a cut, he or she will first clean the cut and give you numbing medicine by injecting it around the wound. After the doctor completes the stitches, he or she will dress the cut with a bandage or gauze.
Stitches use a sterile surgical needle and thread to join the edges of a cut together. They can be absorbable, and dissolve over time, or non-absorbable, and will need to be removed after the wound heals.
Staples used on cuts are special surgical staples that perform the same task at stitches and must be removed like non-absorbable stitches.
Take proper care of the wounded area.
It is important to take care of your stitches or staples to make sure the wound heals well and does not get infection. To do this:
