Pay attention to wound infection when breast cancer ruptures

When the granulation tissue fills the wound bed, the skin around the wound edge migrates and crawls towards the center of the wound, indicating that it has entered the epithelialization stage. At this time, the internal dressing is changed to cover the wound with Mepitel, which extends about 25px beyond the wound edge. The external dressing is sterile gauze, which is changed every 2 to 3 days until the epithelium is completely covered. The patient's wound healed after 6 weeks.

The necrotic tissue and slough in breast cancer wounds provide an ideal environment for bacterial growth. At the same time, large amounts of exudate are also a culture medium for bacteria, which can easily lead to wound infection. For the treatment of infections caused by breast cancer ulcers, attention should be paid to promptly improving the patient's immune function, correct wound treatment, strict disinfection and isolation, and creating a clean and clean environment for patients is particularly important.

Improving immunity can combat breast cancer rupture

Breast cancer rupture will consume a large amount of protein, water, etc., especially during damaging treatments such as radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The immune function decreases and the body function declines. Therefore, in the treatment of breast cancer ulceration, attention should be paid to timely and effective supplementation of the nutrients needed by the body.

If the breast cancer ulcer has healed, you still need to pay attention to improving your immunity, otherwise there is a high possibility of it rupturing again. Even though this is a small problem, it will be very troublesome once it happens.
