Does Your Wound Need Stitches?

It’s always smart to play it safe when it comes to wounds like cuts and lacerations. If you suspect your injury may require stitches, a reputable urgent care center like Affinity Urgent Care is a good place to turn. Specifically, you should visit us if your wound:

• Resulted from a human or animal bite
• Was created by a dirty object, such as a rusty nail
• Is wide or gaping
• Is longer or deeper than half an inch
• Contains debris such as dirt or glass

Our experienced urgent care practitioners can provide stitches, clean wounds, remove embedded objects, properly bandage cuts, treat and prevent infections, and more. Still, some wounds require emergency care in a hospital setting. Be sure to call 911 or go to the nearest ER if a cut:

• Spurts blood
• Exposes bone, muscle, or fatty tissue
• Bleeds heavily for more than 10 minutes, even after applying direct pressure
• Results in loss of consciousness
• Occurs directly over a joint or on the face or scalp
