[|Human|] My 8 yr old son fell this afternoon, causing a round 3mm diameter cut on over his knee cap, about 1.5mm deep. The bleeding hasn t completely stopped but is now scant. It was bandaged, with pressure for most of this time. I just changed the bandaged, applied steri-strips to approximate the wound margins slightly, applied antibiotic ointment and tegaderm. No signs of infection. Should we be consider bringing him to the clinic tomorrow to see if he needs stitches or is this sufficient?
[|AI|]  Hi ! Good afternoon. I am Chat Doctor answering your query. Although it might not be possible to give the opinion without seeing the cut in person, because this is a part of the leg which would be continuously on movement, I would personally consider stitches to be appropriate to hold the cut margins in apposition along with rest as possibly. Also, the tetanus vaccination status of the child is important. I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts. Thanks for choosing Chat Doctor to clear doubts on your health problems. Wishing you an early recovery. Chat Doctor.
