How to deal with skin damage

If the epidermis is injured, it is very easy to get infected. It is recommended that you treat the wound well to avoid bacterial growth. Once the skin is epidermis is broken, we should use disinfectant to clean the wound, then bandage it and stop the bleeding, otherwise it will cause bleeding to continue. It is recommended that everyone learn about the usual methods of stopping bleeding. Now let us learn how to deal with epidermal skin.

1 When our skin is scratched and bleeding does not stop, we should first find the nearest clinic or hospital for treatment. If there is no hospital nearby, we can go to the nearest clinic for treatment. If our injury is more serious, when the doctor in the clinic tells us that he can only perform simple treatment, we should find a nearby hospital for treatment as soon as possible. However, since our wound is exposed to the air, it is easy to cause contamination. We can cover the wound with a sterilized gauze.

2 Since the wound is constantly bleeding, excessive bleeding can easily cause shock. We can tear the clothes into long strips, or buy a roll of bandage, tie the upper end of the wound (the end close to the heart), and then find transportation to the hospital. It is best to loosen the tied area after a period of time and then tie it again to ensure blood circulation in the injured area.

3 After arriving at the hospital, we must clearly tell the doctor whether we have any allergies to anesthetics or other drugs. Anesthetic allergy is also very serious. If rescue is not timely, it may sometimes be life-threatening. We should tell the doctor about any discomfort we feel so that it can be treated promptly and avoid unnecessary accidents.

4 After our wound is sutured and we return home, in addition to following the doctor's instructions for anti-inflammatory treatment, we must also try to reduce activity. If the weather is hot, we must also avoid sweat flowing into the wound and causing wound infection. Try not to take a shower, because if the gauze covering the wound becomes wet, it will not be able to insulate bacteria, and bacteria will enter our wound and cause wound infection.

5. If the weather is very hot and you sweat a lot, we should turn on the fan or air conditioner to reduce sweat secretion and promote the evaporation of sweat on the body. Because too much sweat will wet the wound and soak the gauze, the gauze will not be able to serve the purpose of insulating bacteria and will also cause infection of the wound. In addition, we should try to avoid dusty places to prevent the bacteria in the dust from contaminating our wounds through the gauze.

6 We also need to improve our diet and eat more foods rich in protein and vitamin C. Protein-containing foods include lean pork, chicken, beef, fish, eggs, beans and soy products. Foods containing vitamin C include tomatoes, kiwis, grapes, strawberries, etc. These foods can promote the synthesis of collagen fibers in the wound area and are very beneficial for wound healing.
