Asking for Self, Male, 25 years old, Karachi
A few days back, i posted about my husband’s accident wound. Some of the doctors here suggested to apply polyfax and clean it with pyodine.
I was doing that, he visited a doctor and the doctor put a bandage over the wound for one day, and told us to take it off the next day.
The wound on the knee now looks like this (picture attached) it’s been 8 days to the accident.
Can the doctors please guide me what do i do further?
1) should i cover it with a bandage) 2) should i apply GREEN polyfax, instead of the blue one? 3) should i give him tablet augmentin as antibiotic?
online Consultation.
Green and blue polyfax are more or less same only diff is green has Painkiller in form of xylocaine. Any polyfax will b sufficient twice a day
Marham please do not tag consultants of internal medicine in surgical questions . Thanks
I would suggest that you apply blue polyfax, the only difference between blue and green polyfax is that green contains xylocaine which would help with pain and since he does not have any pain... Blue polyfax twice a day is more than enough and there is no need for Augmentin at the moment.
plz discuss with Surgeon not physician/ internal medicine doctor

Looks like the wound is healing. Continue with Polyfax plus. Is there any pus coming?any fever? If he is going out, you can apply polyfax and cover lightly. If there is fever or pus, only then we need to give antibiotics. Did he get Tetanus injection after the injury or in the past 5-10 years.

Before starting antibiotic I would suggest to get a pus Cs /wound Cs done. You can give Tb Augmentin 1.2 gm bd. Keep it clean with pyodine and do regular dressing. Open wound is always at risk for infection so I suggest to give antibiotics.
