【Learning Key Points】
- Skin grafting surgery usually involves taking healthy skin from a certain part of the body (such as thighs, abdomen, back) to cover the skin defect, so that the wound can heal as quickly as possible and reduce the occurrence of secondary infections.
- Elevate the affected limb with a pillow according to the doctor's instructions to avoid pressure on the skin graft site and maintain proper fixation and support.
- Generally, the skin in the normal skin grafting area will survive after a week, but it still needs to be fixed with plaster or wood. It can only be removed after the doctor's evaluation, and activities should be restricted for more than two to three weeks to ensure complete healing of the skin in the skin grafting area.
