I'm trying to write a story, and one of the characters gets shot, in-and-out, around the shoulder. How long would it take for a patient to be able to leave the hospital, and would it be likely for a gunshot around that area to have a place to enter and exit without damaging any bone or vital organs?
I should have also added that the area I'm thinking of for the gunshot is about where the shoulder meets the chest, like around where your armpit would be. I'm not sure if that helps. Thanks for the answers so far.
