Abstract :
The integrity of healthy skin plays a crucial role in maintaining physiological homeostasis of the body. Wound management is the most important issue in medicine and constantly evolving with the advances. The overall increase of different kind of wounds, and chronic wounds take a long time to heal makes wound care more complicated and important. Thus, there is a growing need to use of best methods for wound healing therapies to improve cutaneous wound healing. This article offers an overview of common methods of wound management, including physical, chemical and biological methods.
