Ointments for wound healing

It is known that the faster the wound surface heals, the smaller the trace of the wound will remain. Any family's first aid kit should contain some kind of ointment for wound healing, because no one is immune from various skin injuries.

Of course, a small abrasion or cut can be treated only with brilliant green or peroxide. The ointment form is suitable for treating both minor and significant damage to the integrity of the skin.

Indications for the use of ointments for wound healing

The use of ointment medicinal forms for the treatment of wounds and damage to the skin or soft tissues often contributes to their rapid healing. Although, for complete healing, as a rule, several different forms of medications may be required, depending on the stage of the granulation process. Thus, the form of release of the drug can vary from ointment-like to gel-like or paste-like emulsion.

Such a medicine as ointment has been known for many centuries. Similar preparations have long been used in the treatment of wounds, and are still used today. The ointment structure is such that a kind of protective film is formed on the wound surface, which helps to soften the crust (scab) and prevents pathogenic flora from entering from the outside. Such properties are most relevant for so-called dry wounds, which are not accompanied by all sorts of purulent or serous discharge.

The use of ointment preparations prevents cracking of the scab and the development of an inflammatory process underneath it.

Some medications with an ointment-like consistency are used at any stage of healing of skin damage. This applies to drugs that, in addition to forming protection, promote active trophism and restoration of damaged tissue layers.

For fast and proper healing of the wound surface, special external preparations are used that prevent infection and stimulate scarring - tightening and restoration of damaged tissues. Below we offer you to familiarize yourself with the list of the most effective ointments for wound healing. This is a kind of rating of external medications that are most popular with patients.

Wound Healing Ointments Rating

• An ointment for healing facial wounds must have certain mandatory qualities: stimulate healing and at the same time not irritate the delicate skin of the face. The following preparations meet these criteria:
  • Pantoderm is an external agent with metabolic and anti-inflammatory action, which is applied in a thin layer directly to the wound;
  • Levomekol is an anti-inflammatory drug with a combined effect, used on wounds of any type, including those with purulent discharge;
  • Bruise-OFF is an ointment for healing small wounds and scratches in the facial area;
  • Streptocide ointment – helps with purulent inflammation, has an antimicrobial effect.

The listed ointments for wounds are used several days after the injury, and always after consulting a doctor.

• An antibiotic ointment for wound healing will help in case of infection risk – pathogenic bacteria getting into the wound. Here the rules for choosing a drug are as follows: the more significant the tissue damage, the stronger the antibacterial agent should be.

For example, the well-known Boro Plus cream can be irreplaceable for minor wounds and cuts. For extensive purulent wounds, preparations on a special basis with increased absorption are suitable: such ointment-like forms have better penetrating ability and can ensure the fastest removal of exudate from tissues to the outside. Such external agents include Levomekol, Furagel, Povidone-iodine, Nitacid or Streptonitol. The listed medications can be used at almost any stage of wound healing.

• An ointment for wounds after surgery is usually prescribed by a surgeon. Most often, such an ointment is Solcoseryl, a regenerating drug prepared on the basis of a blood extract of dairy calves. Solcoseryl accelerates the granulation stage, improves the properties of epithelial tissue.

An analogue of the above preparation is the ointment Actovegin, which has a similar composition. The product is applied once a day, it can be applied under a bandage.

Another classic prescription for treating postoperative wounds is Levomekol. This medication combines the properties of an antibiotic and a regenerating agent. Levomekol is especially often prescribed for treating suppurating wound surfaces.

• An ointment for a deep wound should have a high degree of absorption, i.e., be absorbed into the tissue layers as deeply as possible. Such external forms as Solcoseryl, Levomekol, Richitol, Eplan and Baneocin have a similar property. Most of these ointments are placed inside the wound using tampons or napkins.

Among other preparations, I would like to highlight Dermatix gel separately. It is usually prescribed for the treatment of skin lesions that are tightened with a high probability of forming extensive scars. A minimal amount of gel is used for application - this is enough for high-quality tightening of the wound surface.

• Ointment for weeping wounds is selected depending on the stage of the wound process. Thus, at the stage of inflammation, when it is necessary to ensure the removal of fluid from the tissues, water-soluble preparations are best suited - for example, Levomekol or Levosin. Other liniments are mostly unsuitable, as they can prevent the release of fluid.

At the regeneration stage, an ointment can be used to dry the wound, but it will be better if the preparation is gel-like. Most often, doctors prefer herbal remedies based on sea buckthorn, rose hips, as well as drugs with silver ions.

• The best ointment for dry wounds is Solcoseryl, or Actovegin. The drug is rich in blood components - a protein-free hemoderivative of calf blood. The drug exhibits antihypoxic properties and also enhances intracellular metabolism.

The frequency of application of ointment for dry wounds is twice a day, for at least 12-14 days.

• An ointment for a mouth wound should have antiseptic properties and not have a toxic effect, since the mucous membrane absorbs medicinal substances much more intensively than denser skin. What ointment-like forms exist for use in the oral cavity?

1. Metrogyl Denta is a gel-like preparation containing metronidazole and chlorhexidine, which is what causes the antimicrobial and antiseptic action of the drug. With minimal absorption into the tissue, Metrogyl Denta has a healing effect on the oral mucosa and periodontium. The drug is used twice a day for a week, without rinsing.
2. Holisal is a dental product with antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects. It can be used during pregnancy, in pediatric or adult practice, however, in children under 12 months, Holisal is used with great caution. The drug is applied after meals, since it is not recommended to drink or eat for 2-3 hours after application.

• An ointment for wound healing in diabetes should be selected by an endocrinologist, because in patients with this disease, wounds always heal problematically and for a long time. Moreover, there is a high probability that a purulent or other pathological process will join the wound surface.

With diabetes, there is a massive lesion of blood vessels and nerves, and immunity is reduced. Therefore, if the patient notices that purulent discharge has appeared on the damaged area of tissue, or the process of dying off (necrosis) has begun, then an endocrinologist consultation should be immediate.

Most often, antiseptic solutions are used to treat wounds in diabetes, and only after that do they resort to using ointments - mainly with an antimicrobial effect:

• Levomekol (apply to a napkin or directly to the wound, daily);
• Levomecol (used to soak bandages and tampons until complete healing).

At the same time, an oral course of medications is administered, aimed at strengthening the body's defenses.

• Anti-inflammatory ointments for wounds are used in the first stage of wound healing. According to the rating, the following drugs have the best anti-inflammatory effect:
  • Levomekol – destroys infection in the wound, increases local immunity, perfectly restores damaged tissue;
  • Nitacid - contains the antibacterial components Streptocide and Netazol, which allows the ointment to be used for purulent processes, for treating sutures after surgery, and for treating abscesses;
  • Rescuer Balm is a natural preparation known for its pain-relieving, antiseptic and healing properties;
  • Streptolaven - contains ultralysin and the antimicrobial substance Miramistin, therefore it eliminates inflammation even in purulent and necrotic wounds. Can be used for diabetes.
• Pain-relieving ointment for wounds is almost never applied to large open wounds. Most often, such a product is used for minor cuts and scratches (for example, Rescuer balm), or for soft tissue bruises (Clofezon ointment, Sanitas, Voltaren, Gevkamen, Dolgit, Ketoprofen).

The listed medications reduce the severity of the inflammatory process and relieve pain, which is most disturbing immediately after the injury.

In the case of an open, weeping wound, it is better to give preference to wound-healing medications, and to relieve pain by injecting the painful area with anesthetics, or using painkillers prescribed by a doctor.

• Is there an ointment for a non-healing wound? When treating non-healing (hard to heal) wounds, applying ointments alone, even very strong ones, is not enough. In most cases, the doctor prescribes complex antibiotics, drugs that improve trophic processes, etc. Of the ointments, the external drug with antiseptic properties Methyluracil with Miramistin has proven itself well. This ointment is enough to apply once a day, after preliminary treatment with an antiseptic, until complete healing.
• Antiseptic ointment for wounds is relevant for the treatment and prevention of infected wounds. Such a drug delays the proliferation of bacteria, eliminates or prevents the inflammatory process, which significantly contributes to the healing of damage. The rating of antiseptic ointment preparations is as follows:
  • Bepanten plus - a combination of chlorhexidine and panthenol;
  • Betadine (analogue of Povidone-iodine);
  • Vishnevsky ointment (a combination of tar, xeroform and castor oil);
  • Boro Plus cream (plant-based product);
  • Boric ointment (a preparation based on boric acid);
  • Calendula ointment Dr. Theiss.

The list provided contains the most common ointment forms that are most often purchased in pharmacies.

• Hormonal ointment for wound healing is usually not used. This remedy is intended for the treatment of skin diseases such as dermatitis, psoriasis, dermatomyositis, etc. The appropriateness of using such a drug depends entirely on the doctor's decision. Among the most popular hormonal ointments are:
  • Advantan is an external agent based on methylprednisolone;
  • Elokom is a drug containing the synthetic glucocorticosteroid mometasone furoate;
  • Dermovate is an ointment preparation containing the glucocorticoid hormone clobetasol propionate;
  • Lorinden is a drug containing flumethasone (a synthetic glucocorticosteroid);
  • Sinaflan is a liniment based on fluocinolone acetonide.

Hormonal ointments are not intended for self-treatment, as their uncontrolled use can negatively affect the patient's health.

• Are ointments used for bleeding wounds? As a rule, ointments are not used for bleeding wounds, regardless of the degree of bleeding. Their use begins only when the wound is covered with granulation. Therefore, ointment forms for bleeding are not included in the list of the most popular external preparations for treating skin wounds.
• Ointment for abrasions and wounds for children - which is better? In fact, there are quite a few such products, and each family with children chooses the most suitable one in terms of price and quality. Doctors strongly recommend having one of the following products in the family medicine cabinet:
  • Olazol is a preparation based on sea buckthorn oil, boric acid and chloramphenicol. Suitable for use in children from 2 years of age;
  • Sulfargin is an ointment containing silver sulfadiazine. It is used in pediatric practice from 3 months of age;
  • Actovegin is a medication made from deproteinized calf blood extract. It is often used in pediatrics;
  • Bepanten is an external medicine with provitamin B5 (dexpantenol). It is used from birth.
  • Eplan is a wound healing agent that can be used in children of any age.

When choosing any medications for children, consultation with a pediatrician is mandatory!

• The final stage of the rating is the most effective ointment recipe for wound healing. It is no secret that traditional medicine recipes often have unique properties. At the same time, they are based on the use of accessible and inexpensive natural ingredients. Let's move directly to the options for preparing homemade ointment forms.

1. Take any amount of melted lard or other fat (e.g. vegetable or butter), heat it until hot, but do not bring it to a boil. Add crushed propolis, continue to cook for 25-30 minutes on low heat. Then strain and cool. Use the resulting mass to treat wounds and skin diseases.
2. Mix crushed burdock rhizomes with the same processed celandine rhizome (30 and 20 g, respectively). Pour in 100 g of vegetable oil and boil at minimum heat for about a quarter of an hour. Then filter and cool. Use for application 2-3 times a day.
3. Mix 100 g of vegetable oil, 12 g of wax, 20 g of rosin, 1 g of incense, 1 tbsp. of fresh butter. Grind everything, put it in a container and boil for 10 minutes, stirring constantly. Cool. This mixture can be used under a bandage, applying to wounds as needed.

What is the best ointment for wounds?

There is no single answer to this question, as each person chooses a drug for themselves based on a variety of preferences:

• low allergenicity of the drug;
• can be used by all family members;
• low or high price category;
• “Universality” of the external agent – the possibility of using it not only for treating wounds, but also other skin lesions.

Of course, if the ointment for treating the wound is chosen correctly, the recovery process will go much faster and more comfortably. It is advisable to immediately consult a doctor for this, especially if the wound is extensive and (or) deep.

For minor wounds and cuts, inexpensive ointments for wound healing may be useful:

• Levomekol tube 40 g, cost up to 15 UAH;
• Vishnevsky liniment, 40 g tube, cost – up to 15 UAH;
• calendula ointment tube 30 g (Fitopharm, Ukraine), cost - up to 10 UAH;
• Boric ointment 5% tube 25 g – up to 10 UAH.

The average price category is domestic external preparations, often with a combined effect:

• methyluracil ointment 10% tube 25 g, cost - up to 35 UAH;
• Boro plus antiseptic, cost – up to 35 UAH.

As practice shows, in order for the treatment not to be delayed, it is recommended to use a comprehensive approach. For example, an ointment for wound healing can be successfully combined with other medicinal forms: gel, antiseptic solutions, oral medications. Since it is extremely important to know when and in what quantities to use certain medications, wound treatment should be carried out under the supervision of a medical specialist.
