As a result of wrong dressing, it is difficult to promote wound healing and fix the wound if the dressing is too loose. Too tight dressing is not conducive to local blood circulation, and even limb swelling, chills, numbness and necrosis. After dressing, don't move the patient excessively to avoid irreparable harm.
The correct dressing method first, after injury, rinse with running water. And soak iodophor with cotton swab for local disinfection; If the wound is large or dirty, it can be washed with flowing water, physiological saline, hydrogen peroxide and soapy water first, and then coated with iodophor. Secondly, timely and effective dressing, after cleaning the wound, it is best to protect the wound with gauze or band-aid. Band-aid can help isolate bacteria, but it needs to be replaced at least every day or at any time according to the bleeding situation of the wound. When using the band-aid, please wrap it around the wound, not along the longitudinal direction of the wound. Finally, in order to protect the wound better, antibiotic ointment can be applied preventively to reduce the risk of bacterial infection. Generally, the wound can heal or scab slightly after five days of dressing. If there is no scab or swelling, you need to be alert to infection or complications, and you need to seek medical advice in time.
