Answer:

Ripping away of the tissue from its support structures

Step-by-step explanation:

Client got avulsion of left ring finger in the injury. Avulsion is the tearing away of the tissues from its supporting mass, it could be due to any physical injury caused during work or any other activity. The tissues are detached from their normal position and are difficult to take back the normal position. In case of avulsion wounds neither stitching could be done nor it could be repaired due to missing tissue.
