Detailed explanation-1: -Wounds heal faster if they are kept warm. Try to be quick when changing dressings. Exposing a wound to the open air can drop its temperature and may slow healing for a few hours. Don’t use antiseptic creams, washes or sprays on a chronic wound.
Detailed explanation-2: -Wound edge (margin) can indicate the stage of healing and provide information as to the wound aetiology. The margin type that is good to see is skin that is smooth and adheres firmly to the wound bed.
Detailed explanation-3: -Wound healing, as a normal biological process in the human body, is achieved through four precisely and highly programmed phases: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. For a wound to heal successfully, all four phases must occur in the proper sequence and time frame.
Detailed explanation-4: -Primary closure (sometimes referred to as healing by primary intention) is the fastest type of wound closure.
