Patient's question:
Yesterday, I gave my 4-year-old baby a haircut and accidentally cut off a piece of meat from their ear, causing it to bleed profusely. It was a long gash. Can the skin on the child's ear close properly? Will it leave a scar?Doctor's answer:
Problem Analysis: Hello, based on the situation you described, there are capillaries on your ear, but no major arteries or veins, and it does not cause significant bleeding. If the wound is not severe, the main treatment is to ensure proper disinfection. This condition is generally benign and does not lead to scarring, so there is no need to worry too much. The primary focus is on disinfection, and the wound should be covered with sterile gauze to prevent infection. Avoid getting it wet and prevent infection, and it will heal within a few days.
