What are the disadvantages of desiccated wounds?
How can someone tell if their wound is becoming desiccated?
A telltale sign of a desiccated wound is that the area around the wound will become dry and scaly. The wound itself may appear crusty or flaky, and the edges may become raised and tough. If you notice these signs, it's important to start taking steps to rehydrate the wound and prevent further desiccation.
