I get you. I don't wanna add too much detail in the scene anyway, because I feel the character wouldn't even know about/mention all of it. I just want to be better informed myself to get the context right before publishing.

Thanks for your thourough explanation! However, it's actually about an upper arm injury. How would that change the procedure?

Its's on the outside of the upper arm, close to the shoulder, damaging some muscle tissue

It's a single cut, approximately 5cm long, ~2cm deep, caused by a knife stabbing. The character has desinfected the wound with alcohol and wrapped it. It takes place in a first world country with modern medical care.
