Which is better in a head injury, stitching or pasting?
Q: What is the difference between stitching and pasting? Which procedure is preferable in case of deep head injury? Is it beneficial to do a microsurgery or pasting so that spots do not occur?
A:I am confused by the terminology used. Is it a head injury or a scalp injury? In this stitching causes transverse scars especially on non hairy areas. In non hairy areas, I use medical glue so that the scar is invisible. Pasting, does it refer to the use of glue? In deep scalp injury to control bleeding, regular stitches are recommended. Pasting with glue may not be effective.
