Accidental stabbing with pencil

2017-12-04 23:08:09
My son accidentally stabbed himself in the back with a pencil that was in his book bag. There isn't any bleeding, but there is a small hole that doesn't appear deep. He is complaining of a little pain. Should I take him to the emergency room?

It's important to rule out that the lead tip of the pencil isn't embedded in the wound. If it isn't,nothing to worry about,just ensure local wound management.
