How to see if the wound is infected or cracked after hernia operation? Is to see if the gauze will turn red?

Hello: Incision infection or suture opening are often accompanied by local redness, pus, pain and other symptoms, so it is not necessary to observe the color of gauze.

Guiding opinions:

It is suggested that you wipe the affected area with iodophor to observe whether the incision is red, swollen and suppurative. In the meantime, pay attention to keep the affected area clean and dry, and avoid unclean and worn parts.
