Should I call 9-1-1 for someone with a chest injury?

American Red Cross answered:Call 9-1-1 or the local emergency number for any open or closed chest wound, especially if the person has a puncture wound to the chest. Also call if the person has trouble breathing or a sucking chest wound, or if you suspect rib fractures.Call 9-1-1 or the local emergency number for any open or closed chest wound, especially if the person has a puncture wound to the chest.
