Draining Cyst

by sacbe

Need some info on an open cyst wound, draining clear fluid, no odour. Should debridment be done? Should the wound be packed wet-dry dressing? What type of topical medication? ANY info regarding this situation would be helpful. Thank You, and have a great day. Wound broke open 1 week ago.

We are not able to give medical advice, If asking for someone else then you need to get them to contact their own doctor for advice.
