How to Dress Open Wounds?
After many operations, the wounds are left open and are expected to heal spontaneously. However, the most important issue to be considered in this process is to prevent the tissue from becoming infected. Dressings for open wounds are made to heal the wound faster and without infection. The location of the wound is very important. Wounds standing on the hand are open to germs from outside. Wounds on the genital and rectal areas are in danger of bacteria inside the body. Most typically, wounds in the breech region burned after hair rolling or cautery can become infected during defecation.
The dressing of open wounds may be painful depending on the depth of the wound. There are several ways to reduce this pain. Painkillers alleviate pain to some extent, but they are not fully effective. Instead, local anesthetic creams may work. The most common anesthetic is anesthetic. Anestol pomade cream is effective in the area where it is applied in 2-3 minutes and numb the area. Especially if it is used before dressing applications in breech and genital area, the patient is very comfortable. After the anesthetic cream is applied over the open wound, the wound is cleaned with serum water. Then, the baticon is applied to prevent microbial catching and after the gauze is placed, the top part is covered with a big band called patch.
Furacin ointment, which is used for faster healing of wounds after surgery, is also used as germ-breaking ointment in dressings. If dressing is applied with a layer of furacin during the dressing and covered with gauze, surgical wounds heal faster than microbes. It is especially useful in painful wounds that collect water. Finally, as the biggest problem in dressings is to remove the gauze from the wound, you can remove the gauze from the wound more comfortably if you put warm water in a sprinkled spray and squeeze the gauze before pulling.
