moistened healing

Moistened healing refers to the process where maintaining a moist environment around a wound promotes faster and more effective healing. Instead of letting the wound dry out and scab, a controlled amount of moisture keeps the tissue hydrated, which helps new cells grow more easily, reduces pain, and minimizes scarring. Special dressings or ointments are used to keep the wound moist while protecting it from infection. This approach supports the body's natural healing mechanisms, leading to quicker recovery and better overall wound repair.
