TREATMENT OF WOUNDS (Lotagen-Gel is advised
for wounds)
TREAT
THE WOUND EVERY DAY
•
Because the dog doesn't accept the bandage it eats it (partly)
away
•
Because the wound produces a lot of moisture I have to clean it
every day
•
Because the bandage moves the gauze dressing on the wound draws
away from the wound
•
Put clean cottonwool between the bandage and the gauze dressing to
absorb moisture and for less pressure on the
wound
TREATMENT
•
Take a very clean bucket and fill it with 5 liters clean luke warm
water with at most one table spoon Biotex.
•
Take the bandage and gauze dressing off; if the gauze dressing
sticks to the wound then first soak it with the Biotex
water
•
Clean the wound and vicinity of the wound with it; pour the Biotex
water over and around the wound, with a clean
cup
•
Dry the wound with sterile gauze dressing.
•
Put Lotagen Gel or other good ointment on a sterile gauze dressing
of sufficient size
•
Put the gauze dressing on the wound
•
Put white cotton wool on the gauze dressing and the other places
where you put the bandage
•
Put the bandage on, starting at the lowest part and not too tight
(blood circulation!)
•
Avoid to put pressure on the wound with your hands, especially on
the elbows/joints for the nerves which can be
there!!!
•
For the animals: when the wound is almost closed (not so deep), you
can use Terramicina* Nebulizador
