Depending on which type of abrasion you are seeking advice on, abrasions come in three degree types aptly named first degree, second degree and third degree abrasions. The first type is surface abrasion, where there is just a tear like a paper cut or slight bruise even, which would sting, but heal quickly. The second type involves damage to the surface and the under surface - epidermis and dermis, and would involve some bleeding. The third type involves damage of the underlying parts under the skin and could lead to possible surgery.
