The body basically has the natural ability to cure wounds. This process requires inflammation, which actually plays an important role because the immune system works to repair damaged tissues.

When a bacteria enter the wound, the body's immune cells will fight naturally. However, if the body's defense fails then the wound can be inflamed and a gray turquoise appears yellowish or yellowish white.
This condition not only hinders healing, but also increases the risk of the formation of scar tissue. Therefore, infectious wound care must be carried out properly.
Maintaining wound hygiene is the main key to preventing infection. Use saline liquid (sterral salt solution) to rinse the pus, then clean the remaining dirt with a soft medical cotton.
After a clean wound, apply or close with a silicone gel foam dressing. This bandage helps keep the wound moisturizing, prevent infection, reduce pain, as well as reduce the risk of hyperpigmentation. The silicon layer also absorbs excess liquid and supports the formation of new healthy tissues.
Bandages should be replaced every day to prevent repeated infections. As inflammation decreases, the pus production will decrease and the healing process will run faster.
