my MC sustains a severe beating from three men, one of which is armed with a knife, but does not die.
what kind of injuries would likely result from a typical alley-way assault? i've been trying to do my research and i came up with a punctured lung, six broken ribs, and multiple stab wounds. most of the blows were delivered with a steel toed boot. for the stab wounds, a classic six inch combat knife would fit my plot best, but i'm aiming for non fatal injuries. where would be the best location for two or three non-fatal stab wounds? i'm thinking into ribcage/between ribs, and maybe one in the liver. is a six inch combat knife too likely to inflict fatal injuries?
what kind of recovery time would he be looking at? he's young (23), but was not extremely healthy prior to the beating (he's homeless, so he rarely eats well and recently recovered from an lower respiratory tract infection). he gets medical attention immediately (the cops and ambulance are what scares off the attackers).
i know i need a lot of help, so please don't feel like you have to help me with every aspect of this. if you have anything to add regarding injuries or recovery, i would really appreciate the input.
