Dressings
Dressings protect the wound from further trauma and provide a moist environment for healing and antibacterial. Sometimes, in addition to a wet dressing or medicinal cast or splint is made in the affected limb. If the aberrant healing is suspected, a compression bandage can be used to remove scar hypertrophy. Dressing changes on a regular basis is essential to prevent infection and optimize wound healing.
