Can anyone help me with the wound?
Hello, I've had this wound for some time and never had any problems with it, but now it's suddenly swollen, red and painful when I walk. What can I do? I'm going to the dermatologist on Monday as a precaution, but maybe someone knows if this is acute.
How often and for how long should Octenisept be applied to a wound?
Three days ago, I grated a piece off my little finger with a vegetable grater. It's comparable to a deep abrasion. The location is obviously awkward, and the bandage keeps getting wet when I rinse it off, even when I try to do it all with one hand. Is it excessive to disinfect the wound…
Heart pain with dizziness?
Hello, I'm still quite young myself and first got heart palpitations about three years ago (normal). A few months later, I ran as fast as I could once (for a short time). My entire body then pushed me down, as if gravity were stronger. My heart hurt, and I couldn't walk anymore because I had…
Can I still get kidney congestion?
Hi, I've had kidney stones for some time now and have to put up with a lot of them. Since last night I've had pain on and off, but my tablets can ease or even make it go away. My kidney was slightly blocked from time to time due to a stone in my ureter,…
Can anyone tell me that cancer drugs do not become resistant?
How can you prevent prostate cancer from spreading later and not being treated with castration?
Does gradient tinting provide (significantly) less protection for the eyes? Is long-term exposure to strong sunlight harmful to the eyes?
I work outside as an architect and construction manager under very, very strong sunlight (partly in Germany, partly in Italy) and my eyes are relatively sensitive to various things (light, screen work, dirt, shampoo, sweat). In my opinion, a gradient tint always looks much better. Are there any (minor) health disadvantages compared to a full-coverage…
Hello, John Rambo makes wound disinfection with black powder and fire. Is that a good idea?
Not really.
Special units or expeditions always lead a first help Not Pack where sterile wound dressings/coverages are also included.
Burning the wound with black powder and sealing it airtight by heat is possible, but leaves a large area of scar tissue and leads to consequential problems because burns of 2-3 degrees have occurred, which in turn have to be treated in a sterile manner. Alternatively, Western wounds are also burned with an annealing iron, which is also not “recommendable”.
However, what works as an emergency measure if the agents are limited is to introduce charcoal powder or black powder into the wound (without igniting) and to use the disinfecting effect as well as in some leaves or tree bark.
This is a method for absolute emergency if you have nothing to seal the wound and have no bandage. The heat destroys veins and permanently closes them. In medicine, this method is also applied, but not so.
You just do that if you were to bleed immediately.
But you have a fire wound full of powder residues.
If you don’t get medical care immediately, you’ll get the wound fire.
Strong bleeding can only be stopped with print associations or ties.
Or chewing.
This is precisely the point of this whole action, which he has nothing to connect or shut down and has to stop a dangerous blood loss somehow.
No.
He doesn’t make wound disinfection, but he stops bleeding, even inside. It’s called calendering.
Whatever. Is that good?
Only when you get to the hospital right after that to let the fire wound feed.
I’ve only got gunpowder as good as never.
