What to do if there is pus inside the scab

Under normal circumstances, the scab of the wound is generally developing in a good direction, indicating that the wound is slowly healing. However, if pus is oozing out of the scab, everyone needs to pay attention to it, as it is likely to be infected. At this time, it is generally necessary to clean the wound in time and do a good job of disinfection. Anti-infection treatment should be the main treatment. If the pus is severe, it is best to go to the hospital in time and do not deal with it yourself.

What are the causes of wound suppuration?

Pus is caused when the wound is too deep or treated improperly, bacteria invade the affected area and cause tissue infection. If white or yellowish liquid oozes out of the wound, it means it is festering. Wipe off the pus, apply hydrogen peroxide, and then disinfect it with iodine. If you go out, you should bandage the wound with gauze (do not expose it to wind before it forms a scab), and leave the wound to air at home. Apply "Bai Duo Bang" ointment three times a day (it is super effective, it can reduce inflammation and help wounds scab, and it can be bought at pharmacies), and disinfect with iodine before application. If there is a lot of pus, take erythromycin capsules twice a day to reduce inflammation, and it will be cured in five days.

The main cause of upper mouth suppuration is clostridial infection, which is caused by your carelessness. For example, not disinfecting, not getting the wound wet before it heals, etc., these are all ways of transmission. Clean up the mucus, disinfect with disinfectant, apply Yunnan Baiyao ointment on the wound, bandage it, and remember, do not get it wet. Use amoxicillin capsules, three times a day, 2 capsules each time. Change the dressing every two to three days) and do this until healed.

The reason for wound suppuration is infection, which requires anti-inflammatory treatment.

It is recommended to apply Chinese medicine externally for treatment. The application of traditional Chinese surgical plasters such as the Blood Activating and Muscle Regenerating Plaster can activate blood circulation and remove blood stasis, remove toxins, remove dead tissue and promote muscle growth, clear away heat and detoxify; remove necrotic tissue, kill bacteria and reduce inflammation. It can quickly improve the microcirculation of tissues around the wound, increase local blood flow, and promote the rapid growth of remaining epithelial cell tissues. It has a unique effect on various purulent ulcers, long-term wounds, traumatic infections and other diseases. It does not require injections, medication, surgery, or pain, and can quickly heal wounds to achieve the purpose of healing without side effects.

How to treat various wounds

1. Hemostasis and disinfection

① Disinfect with iodine first and then with alcohol, wipe along the edge of the wound from the inside to the outside, and do not apply iodine or alcohol into the wound. If there is any foreign object in the wound, it should be handled with caution. If it is large and easy to remove, it can be removed. Do not force yourself to remove a deep, small wound that is difficult to remove, so as not to bring bacteria into the wound or increase bleeding.

② For small wounds, you can apply a little mercurochrome (red solution) or gentian violet on the surface of the wound. However, it is not advisable to apply the above solutions on larger wounds to avoid adding difficulties to the next step of treatment. Cover the wound with sterile gauze or dressing and bandage it with a bandage (or triangular bandage). When there is intestinal or tissue protrusion, use a clean bowl and gauze loop to wrap the protrusion and then bandage it to prevent squeezing and damage to the tissue.

③ When dealing with larger traumatic wounds, a detailed examination must be conducted. One should not only focus on the surface of the wound and ignore the internal damage. Patients with head wounds combined with craniocerebral trauma generally have abnormal consciousness and their pupils are of unusual size on both sides. When the chest wound is combined with damage to the meninges and lung cavity, the injured person generally has difficulty breathing. When abdominal wounds are combined with organ damage, the injured person generally has symptoms such as abdominal muscle tension and abdominal pain. When limb wounds are combined with fractures, there will be phenomena such as limb movement disorders and abnormal bone movement.

2. Bandage in time

Proper wound bandaging can reduce bleeding, festering and pain. When tying the knot, you must be quick, accurate, light, and firm, with quick, agile movements. Accurate, precise and strict in positioning. Be gentle, be gentle and don't touch the wound. Firm, secure wrapping, appropriate tightness.

① Craniocerebral injury

Open head injury. Regardless of the severity, bleeding is more severe, and once a fracture occurs, the risk of intracranial bleeding is even greater. In this case, skilled bandaging techniques are required to keep the wound clean and prevent further damage to the brain tissue while also stopping the bleeding. The method can be based on on-site conditions, by making a circle larger than the wound and placing it on the wound. Then apply appropriate pressure bandage.

②Chest injury

Severe chest injuries can quickly endanger the patient's life and must be treated immediately. If it is an open injury and pneumothorax occurs, effective measures should be taken immediately to close the wound and block the flow of gas in and out of the wound. In case of closed and multiple rib fractures, the chest loses support, and the chest wall floats and effective breathing is impossible, lift the injured part or squeeze the injured part appropriately, such as lying on the side, to stop the chest wall from floating and buy time for further treatment.

③Open fractures of limbs

It is often seen when the fracture end pierces the skin and is exposed, and the wound is contaminated. Avoid reducing the fracture ends and use sterile gauze for bandaging. Patients who reinsert their affected limb on their own while it is fixed should inform the hospital doctor and take measures to prevent infection.
