Question

"the wound in her side" or "the wound on her side"
Which of those is the good one.
-"the wound she had in her side" 
-"the wound she had on her side"

Answer

I would say "on her side," because wounds sit on the surface of the side vs being in the side, as if inside of the side...if that makes sense.  "In" is used to denote a location of something inside a space while "on" generally, denotes something above a surface or within proximity.
