It's already bandaged. Does it need disinfection to change the dressing again?
It needs to be disinfected. This is standard procedure.

Although the dressing has prevented some dust and debris from polluting the wound in appearance, it does not mean that it can be completely eliminated, and there will still be tiny bacteria that can string into the wound. On the other hand, people's skin will also have protective secretions, and cleaning the wound is also necessary. Therefore, every time the dressing is changed, the wound should be disinfected again and then bandaged again.
