Q1 · Laceration
NEET PGEasyExplanation
A laceration, caused by blunt force, has ragged, irregular margins with intact tissue bridges of vessels and nerves crossing the wound. An incised wound from a sharp edge has clean margins and no tissue bridges.
Q2 · Incised and Stab Wounds
EasyExplanation
In an incised wound the length exceeds the depth, as a sharp edge is drawn across the surface. In a stab or punctured wound the depth exceeds the surface length.
Q3 · Grievous Hurt
NEET PGHardExplanation
Under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, in force from 1 July 2024, this clause of grievous hurt specifies a period of at least 15 days, changed from the 20 days in the former IPC Section 320. Confirm the exact current wording against the bare act.
Q4 · Age of a Contusion
NEET PGMediumExplanation
Bruises change colour as haemoglobin degrades: red or purple initially, blue over days, green around days 4 to 7, then yellow before fading. This sequence helps estimate the age of an injury, though timing varies.
Q5 · Firearm Entry Wound
NEET PGMediumExplanation
An entry wound typically has inverted margins with a surrounding abrasion collar of grease and dirt, and is usually smaller and rounder than the exit wound, which has everted, ragged margins.
Q6 · Skull Fracture Bevelling
HardExplanation
At the skull, an entry gunshot wound shows internal bevelling, a cone widening on the inner table, while an exit wound shows external bevelling. This helps determine the direction of fire.
Q7 · Defence Wounds
MediumExplanation
Defence wounds occur on the hands and forearms when a victim tries to ward off a weapon. Their presence indicates the victim was conscious and resisting, which helps distinguish homicide from suicide.
Q8 · Hesitation Cuts
MediumExplanation
Hesitation, or tentative, cuts are multiple superficial incisions made before the fatal deeper cut, typically at accessible sites such as the wrist or neck. They strongly suggest self-infliction.
Q9 · Rule of Nines
EasyExplanation
Using the Wallace rule of nines in adults, the head and neck together account for 9% of body surface area, each upper limb 9%, each lower limb 18% and the trunk 36%. It guides burn-area estimation.
Injuries sits within Forensic Medicine, which carries the same syllabus in both exams. This set runs to 9 questions, each tagged Easy, Medium or Hard, 2 of them at Hard, and 4 drawn from previous-year papers.
Answer first, then read the explanation even on the ones you got right — the reasoning is where Injuries marks are actually won, and it is what separates a recalled fact from a question you can solve in a new form. Once the Easy set feels comfortable, filter to Hard to find the gaps Forensic Medicine examiners keep returning to.
