Detailed explanation-1: -Within minutes or even seconds, blood cells start to clump together and clot, protecting the wound and preventing further blood loss. These clots, which turn into scabs as they dry, are created by a type of blood cell called a platelet.
Detailed explanation-2: -Capillaries are formed to service the new skin tissue. Contraction occurs at the edges of the wound to reduce the size of the wound. Surface skin cells migrate from one side of the wound to the other, covering the wound with cells to form the new skin. Depending on the injury, the site is left with a scar.
Detailed explanation-3: -Red blood cells help create collagen, which are tough, white fibers that form the foundation for new tissue. The wound starts to fill in with new tissue, called granulation tissue. New skin begins to form over this tissue. As the wound heals, the edges pull inward and the wound gets smaller.
Detailed explanation-4: -Stop Bleeding. Apply direct pressure on the cut or wound with a clean cloth, tissue, or piece of gauze until bleeding stops. Clean Cut or Wound. Gently clean with soap and warm water. Protect the Wound. Apply antibiotic cream to reduce risk of infection and cover with a sterile bandage. When to Call a Doctor.
