The wound is checked for any type of infection and the doctor may also carry out some blood tests to check the type of wound. The medical history of the patient is also reviewed by the doctor. When the initial checkup is complete, a list of possible treatments is provided to the patient and the technique to be used is then decided.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After deciding the method to be used, the doctor plans the treatment accordingly and provides a list of instructions to the candidate to prepare them for the surgery.

Wound bandages aid in the protection and healing of the tissue.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Negative_Pressure_Wound_Terapy\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Negative Pressure Wound Terapy:<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The lesion is covered completely using specific dressings comprised of spongy cloth or cotton in negative pressure wound care. The skin discharges are removed by a compressor attached to the dressings by a tiny tube, which decreases the tension affected skin and increases the blood circulation to the area.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hyperbaric_Oxygen_Therapy_HBOT\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hyperbaric Oxygen T<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">herapy (HBOT)<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a therapy that boosts oxygen levels in lesions that aren&#8217;t responsive to previous therapies.
