Abrasion is the superficial denudation of the epithelium due to scraping, impact, or pressure. The majority of abrasions heal without leaving any scars. However, the abrasions that extend into the dermis may result in tissue scarring after healing. Abrasions appear in all forms of blunt trauma, with friction and impact being the most common mechanisms. While managing abrasions is relatively simple, there can be significant medico-legal considerations. This activity discusses the evaluation and management of abrasion and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in managing this condition.
