Hi so I need a little help. I'm working on a story where one of my characters gets shot. She's 5 feet tall and about 120lb she gets shot with a .38 caliber Smith and Wesson handgun in the right bicep, it's a through and through but doesn't hit anything major. So what I need help with is:
Any positive input would be greatly appreciated
- What would a realistic reaction be to getting shot?(I know she probably wouldn't fall down or would she?)
- How would they treat it in the ER?(stitches or more than that?)
- Would it be realistic for her to be released the same day or would she more likely be admitted over night?
- What would she be sent home with as far as painkillers and antibiotics go?
- Would she be sent home with a sling or not?
Any positive input would be greatly appreciated
