Actually ricochet wounds wounds can be as bad or worse due to the fact that a ricocheted bullet is no longer symmetrical.
Well that's what I get for talking out of my ass.
In any case, I'm guessing the injury is being exaggerated. Campos walking around for more than an hour (then being sent away on his own to get medical attention?) doesn't seem to jibe with a severe wound requiring a week in the hospital. Just a guess.
