What should I do if the wound is scarred and there is pus inside?

Once the wound shows symptoms of scabbing and suppuration, the first thing to do is to clean the scab of the wound. If the patient's wound suppuration symptoms are not serious, use normal saline to rinse the patient's wound, apply iodine to disinfect the wound after rinsing, and bandage it with sterile gauze;

If the patient's wound has severe symptoms of suppuration and a serious foot ulcer has appeared under the scab, the wound needs to be cleaned in time to remove necrotic tissue and exudate from the sore surface. After cleaning, the sore surface should be rinsed with saline and the dressing should be changed with iodine sand strips or vaseline sand strips every day.

If the patient's wound is more serious and there is no sign of healing with regular dressing changes, it is recommended to use a wound-closing formula for wet compress treatment. It can regulate the qi and blood in the affected area, reduce inflammation and swelling, and achieve the effect of regenerating tissue and healing the wound. It has a good effect on some wounds that cannot heal for a long time.

What not to eat while wound healing

1. Patients who are healing wounds should not eat soy sauce as it may cause scars on the wounds. 2. Patients with wound healing should not eat spicy and irritating foods, such as chili peppers. These foods can easily cause inflammation of the wound. 3. Patients whose wounds are healing cannot eat edible fungi, such as mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, etc. These foods are mostly high-protein foods. Eating too much of them can easily cause liver fire. People who usually have symptoms such as headaches and dizziness should try to eat less of them.
