agree  Joseph Tein: I vote for 'lesion'. There is a subtle difference between 'lesion' and 'injury' - the DRAE defines 'lesion' as= 'daño...causado por una herida' and I think the English word 'lesion' fits this meaning better.

disagree  Miguel Carrión Álvarez: I think the qualifier "traumatica" narrows down the meaning of "damage" to "injury" and away from "wound"
