Jason Y1 - 2021 N1 - T2 - The Atlas of Emergency Medicine, 5e AB - Most physical examinations in cases of sexual abuse or assault will be normal. Findings specific for acute trauma, although not necessarily diagnostic of sexual abuse or assault, include bruising, lacerations, and abrasions. Most of these injuries will heal quickly, usually within a few days, and will heal completely without scarring. Nonacute examination findings caused by trauma can be difficult to diagnose and should be interpreted by a qualified child abuse expert.
