Some patients with low resistance, not pay attention to local cleanliness and various causes of injury healing ability is poor, or may be secondary to postoperative wound infection, the need to carry out the necessary anti-infective treatment, and active treatment of primary diseases, such as diabetes mellitus and reflux pharyngitis, at this time the recovery time will be relatively longer.
