There are two types of wounds: open and closed. Open wounds break the skin and can be minor (scrapes, cuts) or major (deep injuries, amputations). Minor wounds include abrasions, cuts, lacerations, punctures and tears. Major wounds involve embedded objects or amputations. Closed wounds occur internally without breaking the skin, and can cause internal bleeding. Basic first aid treatment for wounds involves assessing the situation, controlling any bleeding, and seeking further medical help if needed.
