🤕 亻(person) + 㐮 — a person harmed; sounds like 'shung' (wound)
伤 combines the person radical 亻with 㐮, marking bodily harm done to a person. Modern senses fan out from physical wounds to falling ill and to abstract damage like hurt feelings or harmed reputations.
伤 — person radical 亻 + 㿝 (phonetic)
伤 is the simplified form of 傷. It combines the person radical 亻, indicating a human being affected, with a phonetic component derived from 昜. The original sense was a wound or injury to a person, which extended to mean 'to hurt,' 'injury,' and figuratively 'to grieve' or 'sorrow.'
