People stumble and fall throughout their lives, and injuries are inevitable. However, after receiving a traumatic injury, unless it is particularly minor, there will always be scars left behind. Patient: “So what should I do after an injury to minimize the damage and make the scars less visible?” Patient: “Doctor, can you explain how to prevent scarring after an injury?” Doctor: “Of course you can.” For newly injured scars, follow the steps below: 1. Seek medical attention immediately after the injury: immediately after the injury, go to the local hospital for debridement and treatment, and suture the broken skin if necessary. The faster the wound heals, the lighter the scar will be. 2.After the wound healing and removal of stitches: After the stitches are removed and after the scabs fall off at the incision, observe the wound condition, if it is a raised or flattened scar, start using anti-scar medication; if it is a depressed scar, you can use growth factors or withhold medication (judged by the doctor) and observe the scar changes in time. No matter what kind of scars, if necessary, you should also cooperate with no-sew tape to bring the skin on both sides of the wound closer to the middle to prevent the scars from widening. 3. 2-4 weeks after stitch removal: the golden period for early preventive photoelectric treatment of scars. At this time, it is necessary to consult the scar department as soon as possible, and the doctor will determine whether it is necessary to do photoelectric intervention treatment such as Plasma, in order to maximize the blurred scars and salvage the post-injury facial loss. 4. Avoidance of food: Avoidance of food after injury is the common knowledge of almost every patient, so which food should be avoided? How long should I avoid eating? In principle, before the redness and hardness of the scar fades away, all should be strictly abstained from eating. (1) Avoid eating spicy foods. Spicy food (non-fishy food) refers to stimulating food with pungent taste, such as chili pepper and liquor. The onion and ginger garlic used in stir-fry and choking can be consumed because of its low content (except for some sensitive people, i.e., the scar appears red and itchy immediately after consumption) (2) Eat less beef and mutton. (3) All foods not mentioned above can be consumed. There is no scientific basis for the rumor that eating soy sauce can cause discoloration and other conditions. I hope that all scar patients can get rid of their scar troubles soon and regain their charming life.
