Wound Management

Wound management focuses on the proper evaluation and treatment of acute, chronic, and non-healing wounds. Timely and appropriate care helps prevent infection, promotes faster healing, and reduces the risk of complications.

Types of Wounds Treated

• Acute wounds and traumatic injuries
• Post-surgical wounds
• Chronic non-healing wounds
• Diabetic foot ulcers
• Infected wounds and abscess-related wounds

Treatment Approach

Effective wound management begins with identifying the underlying cause and providing targeted treatment to support tissue healing.

Common Wound Care Measures Include:

• Regular wound assessment and cleaning
• Debridement of dead or infected tissue
• Advanced wound dressings
• Infection control with appropriate medications
• Skin grafting (STSG) for selected non-healing wounds

Early and structured wound care significantly improves healing outcomes and patient comfort.

Prevention & Aftercare

Proper wound care and follow-up are essential to prevent recurrence and ensure complete healing.

• Keep wounds clean and protected
• Follow dressing and medication instructions strictly
• Maintain good blood sugar control in diabetic patients
• Attend scheduled follow-up visits
• Report any signs of infection promptly
