They often result in bleeding, pain, and sometimes swelling around the affected area. Treatment for cuts involves cleaning the wound with soap and water to prevent infection, applying pressure to stop bleeding, and covering it with a clean bandage. In some cases, medical attention may be necessary, especially for deep cuts that may require stitches to close properly.
