Gravity
Minor wounds can range from a small hole in the skin with little loss of blood to have the object embedded in the skin. In more severe cases may have a hole in the skin with plenty of blood loss and affect internal structures such as an ice pick or knife in the abdomen. As a general rule we can say that the deeper the puncture, the greater the chances of having complications, such as infections.
