Injuries and cuts in children?
Our experienced doctors help children of all ages with wound care and assessment of cuts. We stitch up minor cuts, but for deep cuts, cuts to the face, or wounds with signs of infection, the emergency room should be consulted.
For children under 2 years of age, or children who need extra support during treatment (for example, if the child needs to be held firmly), the emergency room may be a better option. They have additional staff who can assist the doctor in such situations. If in doubt, contact us or the emergency room for advice.
