伤势 refers to the overall condition of an injury, while 伤口 means wound (physical opening)

state of an illness

伤势 is about injury condition; 病情 is about illness condition

伤势 often pairs with verbs like 查看 (examine), 稳定 (stabilize), or 恶化 (deteriorate); not typically used with adjectives like 很严重 alone—say 伤势严重 or 伤势不轻.

Learners sometimes confuse 伤势 with 伤口: 伤势 is the condition of an injury (e.g., 伤势严重), while 伤口 is the wound itself (e.g., 清洗伤口).
