retention dressing

Have you or anyone you know, have a cut or even an injury, that just outright does not want to heal? You might find it super irritating that this wound still persists so long. A bandage is a method that can help the healing process get much quicker. It's a special type of band-aid which helps in faster healing and gives protection to the wounds. Here, read on to get the 411 on how retention dressing works, how you can use it, and what makes it so effective.

So, retention dressing is a kind of prosthetic bandage, and it its designed to fit over & be firmly secured in place on any wound. You can always use Band-Aid tubing for the extra tough spots — particularly cuts on tricky parts of your body such as elbows or knees where regular band-aids may not stay in place as well. Retention dressing is made from stretchable material, allowing it to conform to the contour of the wound. It needs to be nice and tight so that the bandage cannot slip, or change location because you are active and moving around a lot.

The Key to Speedy Healing

It is important to note that leg ulcers is very effective and that it makes the best environment for healing possible. The wound needs protection from all the outside elements that might cause harm to it when you put on the bandage. Such external agents can delay the wound healing process or lead to an infection, which is characterized by a sore and painful wound. Meanwhile, the dressing breathes thereby allowing oxygen to get into a wound. Which is good since for the healing process, that's what you need, blood supply going to the area.

  1. Wash the Wound — The first step is to wash the cut or sore really great with soap and water. It is an important step in preventing the risk of infection (keeping dirt/germs out). Be sure to dry the area well before applying the bandage, if you are wearing one.

Select Appropriate Size: The following step would be to select a retention dressing of size that is suitable for your wound. Make sure you choose a bandage that fits properly, because if it is too small or large it may not be useful either. And if it is oversized, then it would not fix probably.
