The skin acts as the protective barrier so an exposed wound is much more susceptible to infection. When an individual develops wound nature attempts to cover the wound to prevent infection. Wound management by physicians assists nature by cleansing and removal of dead tissues from wound, application of appropriate local dressings onto the wound.
Unfortunately, healing is often not taken place naturally or due to any reasons wound is somewhat healed but gets refreshed with foul smell, slough. In Ayurveda many procedures and different formulations are enumerated for Vrana management by our Acharyas.
