Hi Greetings from HCm.since you have sustained lacerated injury about five inches suturing is the ideal treatment.If there is some wound infection smalllumps will be formed on both sides of suture site probably you may be developing hypertrophied scar or keloid.If it is worrisome you consult a plastic surgeon
