Detailed explanation-1: -A cut (laceration) goes through it. A scratch or scrape (wide scratch) doesn’t go through the skin. Cuts that gape open at rest or with movement need stitches to prevent scarring. Scrapes and scratches never need stitches, no matter how long they are.
Detailed explanation-2: -A cut is typically thought of as a wound caused by a sharp object, like a shard of glass. Lacerations tend to be caused by blunt trauma.
Detailed explanation-3: -Abrasion occurs when your skin scrapes against a rough or hard surface. A laceration is a deep cut or tearing of your skin by items such as knives, tools, or machinery. If deep, bleeding can be rapid and heavy.
Detailed explanation-4: -Cuts are different from other forms of skin wounds like abrasions, which are caused by scraping or friction. Lacerations are similar to cuts in that they are caused by sharp objects such as knives breaking or tearing the skin. The only difference is that lacerations refer to a wound that is jagged or torn.
