Anyone ever feel like a patient’s injury and story don’t match?

Wait 5 sec.

Long story short, I work in Surgery area. A woman came in for an I&D and tendon repair after cutting herself while sharpening a knife in her kitchen. The wound was on the back of her forearm, somewhere between her elbow and wrist. I also noticed healing, yellowing bruises around her right eye as well. But nowhere in the chart was it mentioned. Anyway, I don't know-I just had a feeling there might be more to the story, but I didn’t see anyone follow up on it in the chart. She went home after surgery.   submitted by   /u/quadcatsmama [link]   [comments]
