When to seek medical assistance

While Steropax Large Wound Dressings are expertly designed to manage and protect various wounds, there are instances when it's crucial to seek professional medical advice or attention:

  • If the wound is deep, presents heavy bleeding, or results from serious trauma, immediate medical attention is necessary. Signs of Infection:
  • Redness, swelling, warmth, or an unpleasant odour emanating from the wound site are indicators of potential infection. Also, if you notice yellowish pus or the patient experiences a fever, it's vital to consult a healthcare professional.
  • If the wound continues to bleed heavily even after applying the Steropax dressing and maintaining pressure, it may require stitches or additional medical interventions.
  • If the patient's condition deteriorates or if they exhibit signs of shock, such as pale complexion, rapid heartbeat, or dizziness, seek immediate medical help.
  • If the origin of the wound is uncertain, particularly with punctures or potential animal bites, it's crucial to consult a doctor for potential tetanus shots or other treatments.
  • If the wound isn't showing signs of improvement or healing after several days, even with the Steropax dressing applied, it's recommended to get a professional evaluation.
  • Patients with underlying health conditions, such as diabetes or compromised immune systems, should always consult a doctor when they sustain wounds, as they may be at a higher risk of complications.

Remember, Steropax dressings are a first line of defence in wound care, but they don't replace the expertise and comprehensive care provided by medical professionals. Always trust your judgement and seek medical advice when in doubt.
