In life, we will inevitably encounter some minor injuries and illnesses, but some bad habits can cause wound inflammation, so how to avoid these bad habits? This article will reveal the culprits of wound inflammation and introduce the benefits of silver ion dressing to help you heal your wounds quickly and regain your health!
What bad habits can cause wound inflammation?
1. Excessive cleaning: Many people think that wounds should be kept clean, so they clean the wounds frequently. This will destroy the healing environment of the wound, lead to the growth of bacteria, and cause infection.
2. Ignore disinfection: Some people do not pay attention to wound disinfection and even wipe it directly with water, which can easily lead to bacterial infection and inflammation.
3. Contact with pollutants: There are many pollutants in life, such as dust, oil smoke, etc. If the wound comes into contact with these pollutants, it can easily cause infection.
4. Improper diet: Improper diet can also affect wound healing. Food that is too spicy and irritating can irritate the wound and cause inflammation.
The role of silver ion dressing in wound healing
1. Antibacterial and anti-inflammatory: Silver ions have antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects, which can effectively prevent infection and reduce inflammatory reactions.
2. Promote healing: Silver ions can promote cell proliferation and differentiation around the wound and accelerate wound healing.
3. Reduce pain: Silver ion dressing can also reduce wound pain, making your injury no longer unbearable.
4. Prevent scars: Using silver ion dressing can also prevent the formation of scars and make your skin smoother.
The mechanism of action of silver ion dressing produced by Longterm:
1. Silver ion dressing releases silver ions after contact with wound exudate
2. Silver ions combine with enzyme proteins in bacterial cells to inactivate them and kill bacteria.
3. Silver ions bind to the DNA of bacterial cells, viruses, etc., preventing their replication.
4. The silver ions in the dressing bind to the metal proteins in the wound, increasing the concentration of zinc, calcium, copper, and other ions in the wound, and promoting wound healing.
5. Continuously absorb excess exudate from the wound surface, while keeping the wound surface properly moist, avoiding wound surface maceration, and functioning as a two-way regulator of wound surface humidity.
How to use silver ion dressing?
1. Clean the wound with saline before use and gently dry the surrounding skin.
2. Do not soak the silver ion dressing in physiological saline before use.
3. Choose a dressing 2cm larger than the wound to cover the wound
3. After absorbing the exudate, please replace the dressing in time when the expanded part of the dressing is close to the edge.
4. Depending on the actual condition of the wound, it can be used in conjunction with other dressings.
