Ko te werohanga (Erosion) / lākeretiona (Laceration) he whara papaku ki te kiri me ngā papanga o roto o te tinana, ka whati te epidermis engari kāore i te hohonu.

Tāpiri rongoā rākau (antibiotic ointment) ia rā, ā, kapi te whara papaku ki te kapi hydrocolloid (Hydrocolloid dressing) kia kore e pā mai anō te kōmaka. #Hydrocolloid dressing [Duoderm] #Polysporin #Bacitracin #Betadine
Abrasions are superficial injuries that occur on the skin and visceral linings of the body, disrupting tissue continuity. They are typically minor wounds, mainly limited to the epidermis, and usually do not cause significant bleeding. Most abrasions heal without leaving any scars. However, if the abrasion extends into the dermis, it may result in scar tissue formation during the healing process.

Erosion/Laceration (whara/kōpū) he pakanga o te kiri e whai ana i te ngaro o te epidermis. Ko te laceration, arā te tapahi, he whara kiri. ○ Mahiāra – Rāweke OTC Horomia, ka whakapaipai i te whara ināianei.

Scars are a natural and normal part of healing following an injury to the integumentary system. Ideally, scars should be flat, narrow, and color-matched. Several factors can contribute to poor wound healing. These include but are not limited to infection, poor blood flow, ischemia, and trauma. Proliferative, hyperpigmented, or contracted scars can cause serious problems with both function and emotional well-being.
