The first step in treating lacerations and cuts involves stopping the bleeding. When direct pressure isn’t sufficient, a blood pressure cuff may be used to temporarily assist cuts on the legs and arms. In some cases, pain or numbing medication will be administered. The area around the wound will be cleaned.   Depending on the area and size of the cut or laceration, the doctor will decide the best method to repair the wound. Minor cuts are sometimes closed with adhesive tape or tissue glue. Deeper cuts may require stitches.   Eastway Medical Clinic is available to provide fast-acting treatment and relief for cuts and lacerations.
