What are the causes of pressure sores and what are the treatments for bedsores

The most common cause of pressure sores is persistent vertical pressure on local tissues, especially in the bulging tuberosity of the bones. The formation process is divided into three stages: erythema stage, blister stage and ulcer stage. A high level of vigilance should be exercised during the treatment of pressure sores, as even initial pressure sores can quickly develop into deep ulcers within a week.

In terms of diet, avoid spicy foods (such as chili, green onion and ginger, wine, etc.) and high-calorie foods (such as mutton, dog meat, etc.), and eat more high-protein foods, such as crucian carp soup, fish and shrimp, eggs, etc., which are conducive to the growth of wound cells and accelerate healing.

Pressure ulcers, also known as pressure ulcers, are caused by long-term pressure on local tissues, resulting in continuous ischemia, hypoxia, and malnutrition, resulting in tissue ulceration and necrosis. Pressure sores can be divided into four stages from mild to severe: 1. Stage 1:

Local** intact, with non-fading erythema; 2. Stage II: ** Integrity is impaired, with local blisters and pink abrasions; 3. Stage III: superficial necrosis of the compressed part, damage to the muscle layer; 4. Phase 4:

The subcutaneous tissue may be necrotic and damage the fascial layer, and in severe cases, it can develop into osteomyelitis and myelitis, often accompanied by bacterial infection, large amounts of exudate, and foul odor. There is also a suspicious deep injury, where there is no broken wound on the outside and the infection is severe on the inside.

**Decubitus sores, first of all, to remove the pathogen, to turn over the patient more, to relieve the long-term pressure on the body parts, to turn over regularly, you can use anti-decubitus mattresses. If it is a pressure sore caused by fecal contamination, it is necessary to clean up the local area and do a good job of cleaning and nursing to prevent the wound from being contaminated again. After the pathogen is removed, the first thing to do is to clean the wound, clean up the scab and ulcer tissue of the wound, and apply Suchuangfu Qing Decubitus Muscle Cream.

Patients with bedsores will consume a lot of protein in the body due to infection, so they should supplement protein and eat more lean meat, eggs, milk or some soy products; For patients who are very weak in the body, supplement some protein powder, but also supplement vitamins, and eat more fruits and juices.

**The process of pressure sores is roughly divided into three processes: softening the scab - decomposing - muscle building. This process cannot be crossed or reversed.

If there is no scabbing in the affected area, then directly enter the "decomposing" stage, and so on, combined with the symptoms of your bedsores, it is easy to understand, but the size and depth of the wound are different, and the length of the cycle is different. Keep in mind that for bedsores, decomposing is the key, carrion does not go, and new meat does not grow. There is a word "and" in this, which means that if we only use surgical debridement to clean up the carrion, it may not produce new carrion, and debridement will not produce a lot of healthy and fresh muscle tissue while removing the carrion, so try not to do this unless you have to.

Bedsores must be wet**, must be carried out in line with the principle of "simmering pus and muscles", and the wound must not be dried.

If you want to have an effective pressure ulcer, you must first figure out what stage the pressure ulcer is in, and carry out the correct staging and classification, which is conducive to the development of correct local treatment measures and plans for pressure ulcers. The best way to determine pressure sores.

For first-stage bedsores and second-stage bedsores, conservative sores are mostly used.

The principles of treatment of stage I and stage pressure ulcers: relieve local pressure, improve local blood circulation, protect the wound, remove risk factors, prevent infection, and avoid deterioration of pressure ulcers.

Good repair of stage I and stage pressure sores depends on proper wound management, with the aim of closing the wound in the shortest possible time and completing re-epithelialization. Treatment of blisters: small blisters that have not broken should be minimized by local friction and allowed to absorb on their own.

Large blisters should be punctured with a syringe under sterile conditions to aspirate the foam exudate, covered with a sterile dressing or decubitus ointment, and then covered with a bandage. Treatment of the broken wound: disinfect the wound area**, clean the wound, and then choose sterile dressing cover or antibiotic gauze wet compress and external application according to whether the wound is infected.

However, the use of methyl violet is not advocated, so as not to promote the development of infection to deep tissues. Stage I and stage pressure sores should not be difficult if they are treated in a timely and correct manner.

Stage 3 pressure sores**.

Stage 3 pressure sores can also be surgical** (flap grafting after debridement is completed). Whether it is surgery**, traditional Chinese medicine**, or moist dressing, can be judged according to the patient's comprehensive condition. In addition, many adjuncts also play a good role in the treatment of pressure sores.

For example, recent technologies such as negative pressure ** technology and local oxygen blowing technology have shown certain good results.

Stage 4 severe pressure sores**.

Stage 4 pressure sores need to be systematic and comprehensive, including primary disease control, wound debridement (decomposition), infection control, and the use of drugs to promote muscle healing, etc., these general principles are to first control the internal factors, then prepare the wound bed, then promote granulation proliferation and healing, and finally achieve epidermal growth and healing.

The principles of pressure ulcer surgery**: relieve local pressure, remove necrotic tissue, control wound infection, promote granulation tissue growth, and surgical repair as soon as possible. Surgery is an effective means for pressure sores, and surgery should be sought as soon as possible unless the patient is in poor general condition and cannot tolerate surgery.

Combined with the traditional Chinese medicine ingredient of the wound decubitus care cream, it can accelerate the growth of new granulation, and finally the wound granulation will grow and flatten, and the epidermis can grow and heal.

Surgery** is also divided into direct suture after trauma, skin grafting surgery, skin flap transplantation and other methods.

It is recommended to combine traditional Chinese and Western medicine with open **comprehensive**, open the wound after cleaning the patient's wound, do not suture and cover the wound, and then apply it to the wound surface with a traditional Chinese medicine ointment with the effect of removing saprophytic muscle, which has been proved to make bedsores heal quickly.

You might as well try the kind of spray, the patient is not in pain when the medicine is applied, and the family members are not so worried, I used the spray Yao Skinkang for my grandmother, disinfected the wound and sprayed it a few times, and quickly collected the water, I used many kinds of pastes before, and the medicine really suffered on both sides, so I didn't use that kind anymore.

Hello, most of the external sprays for bedsores are disinfectant and anti-inflammatory, if the patient is in the early stage of the disease, it is okay, once it is more serious or hospitalized, so as not to delay the control of the disease, if you have any questions, you can consult me directly.

Hello, whether it is a large or severe pressure sore, it is recommended that you be conservative**, the patient's bed pressure ulcer fully indicates that the patient's own conditions are limited, and in this case, conservative ** is undoubtedly the best way.

The so-called simple and effective means that you can take care of it at home, after all, bedsores are chronic wounds that take a long period to recover, and it is impossible to stay in hospital for a long time**, applying bedsore cream is a simple and effective method. Promote wound debridement and decorrosion, antibacterial disinfection, muscle and skin, and then cooperate with bandages to manage exudate, and give the wound a suitable environment to quickly and well, it may seem simple, but in fact, there are university questions in it, if you want to understand it specifically, of course, you can talk about it in detail.

Bedsores can be taken slowly at home** because bedsores are a chronic wound in their own right. The wound is small, and the skin is cleaned, and you can directly buy decubitus cream and apply it to the wound. If the wound is large, with black scabs, carrion or cavities, we can go to the hospital for debridement before applying decubitus cream.

The hospital does not have a bedsore department now, so the hospital can only debride and then apply the bedsore patch, which is only a function to reduce pressure, not a pressure sore. Therefore, it is more cost-effective to apply decubitus cream at home. And take care of yourself, be more attentive, and get better faster.

Bedsores are caused by long-term compression of local ** tissues, especially in the protruding position of bones, and long-term compression and friction lead to local ischemia and hypoxia, thus causing tissue necrosis. For patients who have been bedridden for a long time, it is best to sleep on anti-decubitus air cushions, turn over regularly, and massage more, so as to prevent the occurrence of decubitus sores. For bedsores that have formed, you can carry out local conservative**, such as external application of Suchuang Fuqingsheng muscle ointment, regular dressing changes to prevent infection, regular turning over to prevent continued pressure on the bedsore, and surgery**, such as skin grafting, drainage or flap repair at the bedsore, etc., in addition, it can also promote the healing of bedsores by increasing nutrition.

There are many ways to stage pressure ulcers, according to the size and depth of the appearance to classify, can be divided into mild bedsores, moderate bedsores and severe bedsores, in addition to cavitary bedsores and black scab bedsores, in fact, after the black scab is removed, the inside is cavitary, this is distinguished according to the appearance, so that everyone can have an understanding of bedsores, bedsores are essentially a wound, but because of the formation of pressure, with - Suchuangfu decubitus muscle cream, usual care is also very important, pay attention not to continue to be compressed, Boost nutrition confidence and you'll get better soon.

The most important thing for effective ** bedsores is to avoid pressure again, and the nursing work must be done well, and it is recommended to turn over in about two hours and change and wash frequently. The medication should also be insisted on, and the dressing should be changed according to the severity of the disease. In terms of diet, you can strengthen nutrition, you can eat more fresh vegetables and fruits and high-protein foods, and you should also pay attention to effective exercise.

As for the method, if it is only through surgery, it is likely to be again, so it is recommended to be conservative**bedsores, you can try traditional Chinese medicine**.

Decubitus ** master in the folk. Bedsores are generally found in hospitals, but most of the effects of bedsores are not good, the effect is slow, and some only grow skin but not flesh. Therefore, the key to bedsores is to solve the problem of growing meat.

An old man I know has bedsores in a large hospital in Shanghai for more than a month, that is, with a dressing to change the dressing, not getting better, the epidermis looks a little long, but the meat below is not long, and then there is no way, the family contacted a doctor surnamed Li in Shanghai Deyi Nursing Home, it is said that he is more than 70 years old, he has a secret recipe of traditional Chinese medicine, topical use, after a week of use, I saw that there are fresh granulations growing, and it will grow in less than 2 months. I have to say that the master is not a folk.

In a general way

Turn over frequently, it is best to turn over once every two hours, turn over the action gently, not roughly, use soft cushions, air cushions or air rings, and avoid using rubber rings, so as not to cause a decrease in blood flow to the first tissue, which hinders the evaporation of sweat and aggravates the condition.

Nutritional support modalities

Malnutrition is also an important risk factor for pressure sores, and strengthening protein supplementation and supplementing with vitamins C, A and a variety of trace elements can help pressure sores recover.

Physically

These include oxygen therapy, diode laser, HeNe laser, microwave, infrared**, all of which can enhance the resolution of local inflammation. Promotes wound healing.

Medication modality

Many people will choose decubitus cream when facing pressure sores, in fact, in the process of applying the ointment, it will not only bring pain to the patient, but also easily cause secondary damage and bacterial growth. Choose a spray that is more suitable for bedsores, first clean the wound with medical iodophor, and then spray Yao Skinkang directly on the wound, 3 to 5 times a day, which can quickly collect aquatic muscles and reduce the pain of patients.

There are many methods, such as debridement, negative pressure, skin grafting, etc., which need to be considered as appropriate to see if it is convenient for the patient to do it.

If you are bedridden at home for a long time and are inconvenient to move, you can consider applying pressure sore cream to repair and care for the wound, mainly to help achieve the following aspects:

The first is to dissolve and liquefy the carrion, so that the rotten wound is transformed into a clean wound;

secondly, it can be antibacterial and disinfected to control infection and prevent deterioration;

Thirdly, it promotes the growth of granulation, and the new meat can be epithelial when it is full.

Daily care is also important, with a good diet and turn-over care to gradually and quickly recover.

Guard**.

Chinese medicine**. Maggots**.

Muscle-building ointment to rot and toxin.

All of these are possible.
