Wound irrigation means pus, and it depends on the location and depth of the pus and the absence of systemic symptoms before treatment.
If the wound is superficial and there are no systemic symptoms, we recommend repeated flushing with hydrogen peroxide and saline, followed by disinfection with iodophor, and topical treatment with antibiotic ointment. 2-3 days to change the wound dressing until it heals.
If the pus is deep, the wound can be incised or the sutured area can be dismantled if necessary to drain the pus and drain adequately, then the area can be flushed with hydrogen peroxide, saline, etc., cleaned and disinfected with iodophor, and the wound can heal in two stages.
If a patient has significant systemic symptoms, elevated body temperature, and severe local swelling and pain, they can be treated with intravenous antibiotics, such as ceftriaxone sodium and metronidazole, in addition to the debridement treatment.
