Patient's question:
I discovered that I had body odor when I was a child, and it was very unpleasant. Every day, taking a bath with fragrant water couldn't cover the smell at all. A month ago, I had surgery at the hospital, and the surgery went quite smoothly. However, these past few days, the surgical wound accidentally opened, and it got infected. It's very painful. What should I do if body odor surgery gets infected?Doctor's answer:
After axillary odor surgery, it got infected and easily produced purulent discharge. The amount of secretion continued to increase, and symptoms of oily, red, swollen, and painful skin reappeared. Anti-inflammatory drugs can be used for treatment. Saline solution can be used for local washing, and povidone-iodine can be used for local sterilization. It is important to pay attention to local hygiene. At the same time, it is also necessary to eat more fruits and vegetables, enhance nutrition, and promote the gradual healing of the wound. Avoid spicy and irritating foods.
