Traditional Methods For Wound Healing

Wound Care:
• Autolytic debridement (natural process) using dressings and solutions such as Daykin’s, honey, alginates, hydrogels and hydrocolloids.
• Follow the healthcare professional’s instructions for wound care meticulously.
• Keep the wound clean and dry, and change dressings as recommended.

Nutrition:
• Maintain a well-balanced and nutritious diet to support overall health and wound healing. Adequate protein, vitamins (especially vitamin C and vitamin A), and minerals are essential for tissue repair.

• If the wound is related to pressure ulcers, ensure that you are repositioning regularly to relieve pressure on aected areas by using support surfaces such as special mattresses or cushions to reduce pressure.
