How to bandage a wound without the gauze sticking to the skin

Under normal circumstances, gauze may stick to a wound due to excessive exudate or bleeding from the wound and failure to change the gauze in a timely manner. To prevent gauze from adhering to the skin during dressing, follow these specific steps:

1. Prepare necessary supplies such as gauze, oily gauze, iodophor, adhesive tape, etc.

2. Disinfect the wound using iodophor.

3. For larger wounds with significant exudate, first clean the area with dry sterile cotton balls to absorb the fluid.

4. Then cover the wound with oily gauze followed by regular sterile gauze to prevent adhesion.

After completing the dressing, regular medication changes are required. Under medical guidance, erythromycin ointment can be applied, which usually helps prevent the gauze from sticking to the wound. It is recommended to visit a reputable hospital and perform the procedure under the guidance of a qualified healthcare professional.
