Above Wound Can Be Cancer
Wounds that develop in certain parts of the body but do not last long may indicate not only dermatological problems, but also serious illnesses. Covering the wound with an ointment or bandage may cause negative symptoms such as allergies, infections, and may lead to late diagnosis of underlying diseases such as liver dysfunction, diabetes and cancer. Memorial Wound Analysis and Treatment Center Prof. Sisli Hospital. Dr. Orhan Babuçcu, gave information about the points to be considered in the treatment of wound.
Not every wound is just a wound
Wounds are often seen as a disease of their own. This may be relatively accurate in some cases, such as a bed wound. Wounds on the feet of patients with diabetes or limb wounds due to circulatory disorders are also a problem in themselves. However, not every wound is merely a wound and requires an accurate analysis and treatment process.
Blood and lymph cancer can manifest itself with a wound
Wounds that occur in our legs and do not respond to any treatment can sometimes be a harbinger of diseases in our internal organs, especially our digestive system, and even cancers. It is important to distinguish these wounds from the rash seen in liver disorders. The non-healing wound itself may be a cancer or a wound that lasts more than 20 years can turn into cancer. In contrast, various types of blood and lymph cancer can manifest itself as a skin wound. A major stain of rheumatic diseases is an inflammatory reaction of the vessel walls called vasculitis, which sometimes occurs as non-healing wounds.
Unconsciously applied ointments and creams may enlarge the wound further
Wounds on the body often cause anxiety. The reasons for this are investigated without any investigation, unconsciously applying the drug instead of the wound, causing allergies and creating larger wounds. In this case, the wound may get worse as it is tried to be treated.
The patient can also make a wound
In some cases, patients with psychological problems may cause self-healing wounds. The goal here can often be a little more interested or medical care. It is very important that this condition is diagnosed by specialist doctors and treatment is applied.
Investigate the source of the wound and determine the treatment plan
Every wound in the body should not lead to panic. However, if a wound does not heal within 3 months despite ideal wound care, the specialist should be consulted. The cause of the wound should be diagnosed and appropriate treatment planning made, and the person must follow the doctor's recommendations in full. If an underlying disease is detected, the treatment process should be initiated.
