Question: A dog bites a large chunck of flesh from a man's leg. The large, open wound will likely heal by what process.?
Answers:
Secondary healing. The doctor won't sew the edges of the wound closed; even if there was enough skin to cover the wound, closing it up would trap bacteria inside and lead to infection. Instead, the wound will be left open, the wound bed kept moist and covered with dressings that will be changed about twice a day. Health Question & Answer
