గాయాలను నీట్ గా పెట్టు కోవడమంటే ఏదైనా ఆంటీబయోటిక్ ఆయింట్మెంట్ వ్రాసి బ్యాండేజీ కట్టడమేనాండి? లేక కట్టు కట్టకుండా గాలి తగిలేటట్లు వదిలేయడమా?

General medical care may include:

• Cleaning to remove dirt and debris from a fresh wound. This is done very gently and often in the shower with clean water.
• Vaccinating for tetanus may be recommended in some cases of traumatic injury.
• Exploring a deep wound surgically may be necessary. Local anaesthetic will be given before the examination.
• Removing dead skin surgically. Local anaesthetic will be given.
• Closing large wounds with stitches or staples.
• Dressing the wound. The dressing chosen by your doctor depends on the type and severity of the wound. In most cases of chronic wounds, the doctor will recommend a moist dressing.
• Relieving pain with medications. Pain can cause the blood vessels to constrict, which slows healing. If your wound is causing discomfort, tell your doctor. The doctor may suggest that you take over-the-counter drugs or may prescribe stronger pain-killing medication.
• Treating signs of infection including pain, pus and fever. The doctor will prescribe antibiotics and antimicrobial dressings if necessary. Take as directed.
• Reviewing your other medications. Some medications, such as anti-inflammatory drugs and steroids, interfere with the body's healing process. Tell your doctor about all medications you take (including natural medicines) or have recently taken. The doctor may change the dose or prescribe other medicines until your wound has healed.
• Using aids such as support stockings. Use these aids as directed by your doctor.
• Treating other medical conditions, such as anaemia, that may prevent your wound healing.
• Prescribing specific antibiotics for wounds caused by Bairnsdale or Buruli ulcers. Skin grafts may also be needed.
• Improving the blood supply with vascular surgery, if diabetes or other conditions related to poor blood supply prevent wound healing.

Self-care suggestions

Self-care suggestions for slow-healing wounds include:

• Do not take drugs that interfere with the body's natural healing process if possible. For example, anti-inflammatory drugs (such as over-the-counter aspirin) will hamper the action of immune system cells. Ask your doctor for a list of medicines to avoid in the short term.
• Make sure to eat properly. Your body needs good food to fuel the healing process.
• Include foods rich in vitamin C in your diet. The body needs vitamin C to make collagen. Fresh fruits and vegetables eaten daily will also supply your body with other nutrients essential to wound healing such as vitamin A, copper and zinc. It may help to supplement your diet with extra vitamin C.
• Keep your wound dressed in case of big ones. Wounds heal faster if they are kept warm. Try to be quick when changing dressings. Exposing a wound to the open air can drop its temperature and may slow healing for a few hours.
• Don't use antiseptic creams, washes or sprays on a chronic wound. These preparations are poisonous to the cells involved in wound repair.
• Have regular exercise because it increases blood flow, improves general health and speeds wound healing.
• Manage any chronic medical conditions such as diabetes.
