Wound Care and Pain Management

The skin, as the largest organ of the human body, envelops the entire external surface. It is composed of three distinct layers: the epidermis, dermis, and hypodermis. The skin’s complex structure acts as the body’s primary defense against external threats such as pathogens, ultraviolet radiation, harmful chemicals, and physical injuries. Additionally, it plays a crucial role in regulating body temperature and controlling water loss through the skin’s surface.

When skin damage occurs, proper wound care and pain management are essential from the onset of injury through the healing process. Skilled healthcare professionals are well-versed in pain management techniques and may recommend stronger analgesics for patients with severe or infected wounds. They might also apply topical antibiotics to minor cuts and abrasions or suggest an appropriate ointment. In cases where there is a high risk of infection during the wound healing process, a medical expert may prescribe oral antibiotics.
