Sanguineous drainage is blood-tinged or bloody fluid that seeps from wounds during the healing process. While some bleeding is normal in fresh wounds, changes in volume, color, or timing can indicate complications such as infection, vessel damage, or delayed healing.

Unlike more aggressive techniques, this approach is selective,…

When your body heals a wound, it sometimes produces too much collagen, creating a raised, firm scar that stays within the original injury borders. These hypertrophic scars differ from keloids, which grow beyond wound edges and rarely shrink on their own. Whether you’re recovering from surgery, a burn, or an injury, these prominent scars can…
