Injuries from sharp lacerations potentially cause four different types of injuries depending on their depth and location: a simple laceration, nerve damage, tendon damage or foreign body deposition, which occurs when a small piece of glass remains in your hand.
A laceration is a deep cut or tear in the skin and/or underlying tissue, commonly caused by blunt trauma (such as a fall or collision), incision by a sharp object, or mammalian bite. Infection is the most common complication of a laceration.
Wounds involving glass are likely to have foreign bodies, lacerations due to sharp metal rarely do, and wounds involving other substances are of intermediate risk. Although not very sensitive, a patient’s complaint of feeling a foreign body is fairly specific and should not be ignored.
