Frequently Asked Questions
When should I see a healthcare provider for wound care?
You should see a healthcare provider for wound care if you have a deep or infected wound, the wound is not healing or is worsening, or if you have a wound in a difficult-to-treat location, such as on the face or near a joint. Additionally, seek medical care if you develop signs of infection, such as fever, redness, or pus coming from the wound.
How often does a wound need to be dressed?
The frequency of wound dressings depends on the type and severity of the wound. As a general rule, wounds should be dressed at least once every 24 to 48 hours. However, your healthcare provider may recommend more frequent dressing changes if the wound requires closer monitoring.
Do you accept insurance for wound care treatment?
