When Does a Wound Need Assessment?
Seek medical advice for wounds that are deep, gaping, contaminated or difficult to stop bleeding. A clinician can assess whether suturing or another form of wound care is appropriate.
Some wounds may need medical assessment and closure with sutures. The appropriate approach depends on the wound, its location, how it occurred and how long ago it happened.

Seek medical advice for wounds that are deep, gaping, contaminated or difficult to stop bleeding. A clinician can assess whether suturing or another form of wound care is appropriate.
For heavy bleeding, a deep wound, serious injury, loss of sensation or a wound to the face, eye or major joint, seek urgent emergency care.
