How Can A Laceration On The Scrotum Be Treated?
Hi, my son has a tear in his scrotum about 3 inches long, it doesn t go deep however the bleeding will not subside, I have sterile stripped the area but it bled through. What else can I do other than taking him to the ER ? Can I glue it with medical adhesive?

Hello,
It may require stitches because if bleeding is not stopped or there is gapping, then it leads to problems. So, it is better you consult your treating doctor and plan accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
