hi, i have exactly the same problem, i dont think there is anything you can really do, the only thing ive heard is that when it happens use vitamin E, take capsules or you can even split the capsules open and rub that itself or coconut oil to help in the healing process.  (+ info)

Is there a hands on job in the medical field that doesn't involve looking at wounds?

---

I really wanted to get into the nursing program, but it is really hard for me to look at open wounds and such, I can handle blood just not looking at those certain things. I do want to work with people and not sit down all day, I am still really unsure of what I am going to major in. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
you'll have to deal with open wounds if you go through nursing school. Its part of your rounds. you'll have to work everywhere from the ER to labor and delivery to hospice care. My MIL is a nurse. she says you become desensitised to all that as your go through school.
have you considered becoming a physical therapist. its very hands on and while you would have to help people recovering from surgery or serious injury the wound care is up to someone else.  (+ info)

How do wounds know how to close?

---

Whether deep or wide, wounds seem to know how to close no matter what sha[e they are in. How do wounds determine how to close?
the body has what chiropractors call, "innate intelligence". it is far, far smarter than anyone's educated mind, as well as more capable, and it is what controls all bodily functions that occur at the subconscious level. this is what makes genuine chiropractic different from all else. it recognizes that most health problems arise due to interference of the expression of this intelligence which is conducted via the nervous system. unlike medicine in all it's forms, genuine chiropractic simply seeks to remove interference to this intelligence by correcting vertebral misalignment in the upper neck which causes it, thus allowing the body to restore itself naturally as much as possible with time.  (+ info)

Are there any vitamins or anything that will help heal open wounds faster?

---

I got this gash on my leg, and I'm hoping it will heal in time for my hockey tournament in a week and a half. I was just wondering what, if any, vitamins help heal wounds more quickly.
put neosporin or aloe vera on the gash.
take some Vitamin E.

good luck on your hockey game!

What foods have vitamins that help heal wounds?

---

What vitamins should one eat to help aid the healing process of surface wounds and what foods are good sources of such vitamins?
I'm a fan of wheatgrass. Taken like a shot (with an orange to bite afterwards), it's like a few pounds of vegetables in one single swallow. I've heard it's got amazing antioxidents and vitamins and nutrients.  (+ info)

Why do wounds near a bone take longer to heal?

---

I have heard that wounds for example near the knee cap take longer to heal. I would like to know why they take longer and if this fact is true. I am all ears let me know about your suggestions.
Just an assumption, but I would assume that it's because the bone can't transport blood, oxygen, antibodies, nutrients, and all those things that aid in healing. If a wound is surrounded by thick flesh on 3 sides, but a big bone on the 4th side or thin flesh there, it will probably heal faster around those 3 sides, while it's slower on the 4th side.  (+ info)

Why are wounds a good place for infections?

---

Do wounds or infections make it easier for bacteria to grow and stuff? Why are open cuts good candidates for infections?
First, an intact skin is the first barrier/defence against all infection. The moment it is disturbed it put the person at risk of acquiring an infection from the environment and even from his own skin flora.
It should be remembered that not all wound will get infected and there are various factors play in this matter. The nature of wound itself is very important as a predisposing factor. If the wound resulted in loss of major portion of skin and tissues , the chances are increasing. Contamination is another factor too. Once, microbes invade the area underneath the tissue, it breeds quickly as the environment underneath the tissue is warm, having plenty of oxygen or no oxygen(sometime lack of oxygen that favours the growth of microbes) and dark.
If your wound contains lot of debris(death tissues), it is another good source of multiplication.
There are other factors too that favour the growth such as any chronic illnesses like diabetes, vascular problems, malnutrition, drugs(steroids hinders the wound healing), and lack of treatment for the wound.
So, it is multifactorial and any wound that has occurred from a dirty source and resulted in loss of major portion of skin and tissues will require a proper attention to reduce the risk of infection. However, even a minor cut can have a great effect to the body due to infection, hence need not to be overlooked.
Hope, this helps.  (+ info)
