Superficial abscess incision and drainage

Superficial abscesses are formed. If there are fluctuations, incision and drainage should be performed. Superficial abscess incision and drainage precautions: 1. Superficial abscesses often have bleeding after incision. If there is no active bleeding, generally use a vaseline gauze to fill the pus cavity to stop bleeding. Do not use hemostatic forceps to avoid Damage tissue. 2. When placing drainage, put one end of vaseline gauze all the way to the bottom of the pus cavity, and don't put it on the pus cavity mouth to block the pus cavity, affecting the smooth drainage. The outer section of the drainage strip should be spread out so that both edges of the incision are separated. Do not only pay attention to separating the central part of the incision to avoid premature healing at both ends of the incision, which will reduce the drainage opening and affect drainage.
