Question about windows update

I have a question about Windows updates. In February, Microsoft released an update that caused numerous issues. The updates could not be installed on two client machines. I was able to resolve the issue on one of these problematic clients, but not on the other. Since this client would have gotten stuck in a continuous installation loop, I paused the updates. Starting next week, this client will inevitably receive the March update. What happens if you skip an update that won’t install and pause it until the next update? Will the March update simply be installed over the February update, or could that cause problems? I have no experience with this situation.
