A small laceration is a superficial cut or tear in the skin, often caused by sharp objects or accidents. Although it typically involves the outer layer of skin, it can sometimes extend deeper. While these injuries are generally not life-threatening, proper care is essential to prevent infection and promote efficient healing. Treatment usually involves cleaning the wound, applying antiseptics, and covering it with a sterile dressing. In more severe cases, stitches or other closure methods may be recommended. Legacy Primary Care offers professional treatment to ensure your laceration heals quickly and safely, minimizing the risk of complications.
