Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Secondary intention healing means a wound will be left open (rather than being stitched together) and left to heal by itself, filling in and closing up naturally. It will mean you need regular dressings to the area for up to six weeks, but the time to full healing depends on the size, depth and site of the wound.
Detailed explanation-2: -Another important event in healing is angiogenesis, the in-growth of new capillaries to replace the previously damaged vessels and restore circulation. Other significant events in this phase of healing are the formation of granulation tissue and epithelialization.
