Infected wounds can be difficult to manage for both those providing care and those living with them. These wounds can be painful, slow to heal, and may cause distressing symptoms such as redness, odour and increased fluid. Without effective management, healing can be delayed and the risk of complications may increase. Taking a timely, evidence-based approach to infection management is key to supporting better outcomes.
