How To Treat Purulent Drainage In Cumbria

Do you have a wound that is producing pus or other forms of purulent discharge? Drainage Cumbria, a professional drainage company in Cumbria, North West England, is here to help. Our expertise in drainage can also benefit those who suffer from wounds with excessive discharge that can lead to infection. We understand that wound care management is crucial in preventing further complications, and weve compiled a comprehensive guide on how to treat purulent drainage in Cumbria.

Understanding Purulent Drainage

Purulent drainage is an exudate that is commonly produced in wounds, particularly those infected with bacteria. The pus is a thick liquid that is often yellow, green, or white in colour, and it is composed of dead cells, bacteria, white blood cells, and various inflammatory factors.

Purulent drainage is caused by an accumulation of cells that have died as a result of the body's immune response, which may have developed as a result of infection, injury or incision. Wounds with purulent drainage must be treated immediately to avoid further complications, such as severe infection or abscesses.

Treating Purulent Drainage

If you have a wound that produces purulent drainage, it is important to seek professional advice and treatment from a medical practitioner. Not addressing the wound in a timely and effective way may lead to severe infections, which are difficult to cure.

  1. Addressing the root of the problem

The first step to treating purulent drainage is identifying and addressing the root cause of the drainage. Often, it is the result of a bacterial infection caused by a foreign object entering the wound or the delay in proper wound cleansing. Infections may occur following an incision, surgical procedure, or if the wound is not properly cared for. Draining the wound and removing the debris, trying to ensure that the microbial load in the wound is reduced, can cure the problems.

  1. Cleansing the wound properly

Proper wound cleaning is essential in treating purulent drainage. The area around the wound should be wiped clean using warm water and soap. Sterile saline solution is the most commonly used wound cleansing solution to avoid contaminating the wound further. This method will be done by medical professionals, as it involves specialised procedures that involve the removal of the wound's debris or dead tissues.

  1. Applying antibiotics

To avoid the spread of infection, antibiotics will be prescribed. When bacteria invade the wound site, they bring about an inflammatory response that leads to pus formation. If left untreated, the inflammation may spread to other areas of the body, creating more serious health concerns.

  1. Incision Drainage

In some cases, the wound may have to be surgically opened to drain out the purulent exudates. This method is typically referred to as an incision and drainage (I&D) procedure. I&D is done under sterile conditions, injected with a local anesthetic and then opened up, where the wound is cleaned thoroughly, and the debris removed. This process may also involve packing, where a medicated gauze is placed into the wound to facilitate the healing process.
