The identification of minor injuries and minor injuries is mainly carried out in accordance with the "Standards for the Identification of the Degree of Human Injury".
Minor injuries: It refers to the action of various external factors on the human body, causing slight damage or transient dysfunction of local tissues and organs. According to the standard of "Identification of Minor Injuries in the Human Body", minor injuries refer to minor injuries or transient dysfunction of local tissues and organs of the body. These injuries usually cause only temporary and minor reactions of the body, which do not affect organ function and can generally be repaired on their own, such as epidermal abrasions, exfoliations, small subcutaneous hematomas, and some very minor fractures.
Minor injuries: refers to injuries that cause damage to a person's limbs or appearance, partial impairment of hearing, vision or other organ functions, or other injuries that have moderate harm to human health, including minor injuries of the first degree and minor injuries of the second degree. According to the Standards for the Identification of the Degree of Human Injury, minor injury refers to an injury that is caused by various external factors such as physical, chemical, and biological factors acting on the human body, causing a certain degree of damage to the structure of tissues and organs or partial dysfunction, and does not constitute a serious injury but is not a minor injury. For example, a second-degree minor injury may include a facial wound up to 45 cm or more, or 8 cm or more on the head, or if there is a tooth loss or more than 2 broken teeth, or if there are 2 or more rib fractures.
Overall, the main difference between minor and minor injuries is the extent of the injury and the scope of impact. Minor injuries usually cause only temporary, minor functional impairment, while minor injuries cause some degree of damage or dysfunction in the human body, but do not yet constitute a major injury.
The above definitions are for reference only, and the specific evaluation of the degree of injury should be subject to the diagnostic opinions of professional doctors and the appraisal conclusions of public security organs. At the same time, the difference in the degree of harm will also affect the nature of the case and the way it is handled.
