When to Seek Medical Attention for a Wound

Even a minor wound can become infected if not cared for properly. It's important to seek medical attention if your wound:

• Is bleeding heavily and won't stop.
• Is deep, gaping, or punctured.
• Shows signs of infection, such as redness, swelling, pus, or fever.
• Is painful, especially if the pain worsens over time.
• Is located near a joint or bone.
• Has foreign objects embedded in it.
