Dressing Pilonidal Sinus Excision Wound
I am dressing the open wound as instructed. First soak in a sitz bath for 5 minutes, then let it dry, then put gauce over the wound and tape. Am I doing it right? How do I ensure wound is dry before putting gauge? What can I do wrong that I need to be careful of?
