What happens if you get stabbed in this area? 2-5 cm of the knife going in (a small, thin knife, like a pairing knife or something)
Should nerve damage be expected, for example? Could it result in losing the function of my arm/hand?

could hit Arteria subclavia, most arm nerves (plexus brachialis) and maybe a pneumothorax

although its a bit to low for the first two things on second sight

And what are the consequences of that?

>>17298849
are you reaterdedly dumb?
if you hit an arteria, you will loose lots of blood, can be fatal in a few minutes if untreated and the blood flows out, although that is unlikely

nerve damage: no more feeling and muscle control in the arm, can only be fixed my neurosurgery

pneumothorax: half of the lung collapses when you puncture through the pleura, this makes it harder to breath and needs to be fixed by a doctor. only if the person has sever COPD it can have severe implications

>unlikely
>only if
So the only thing probably at major risk here is nerve damage?
