Sucking Chest WoundThe most serious chest wound that requires immediate first aid is a sucking chest wound (Open Pneumothorax). This is a penetrating injury that makes a hole in the chest cavity, causing the lung to collapse, which prevents normal breathing. WARNING! This condition is a medical emergency that will result in death if not treated quickly.
