This document discusses different types of injuries, including mechanical injuries caused by physical violence or trauma. Mechanical injuries are classified as blunt force trauma, sharp force trauma, or firearm injuries. Blunt force trauma includes abrasions, contusions, and lacerations. Abrasions are further classified as scratches, grazes, pressure abrasions, patterned abrasions, and atypical abrasions like nail marks. The age of an abrasion can be estimated based on changes like scabbing that occur over 12-24 hours and 2-3 days as it heals.
