Incisional Procedures
Incisional procedures are surgical techniques that involve making an incision, or cut, in the skin or tissue to access internal structures. These procedures are commonly performed to diagnose or treat various medical conditions, such as removing tumors or repairing damaged organs. The incision allows surgeons to visualize and manipulate the affected area directly.
After the procedure, the incision is typically closed with stitches, staples, or adhesive strips. Recovery time can vary depending on the complexity of the surgery and the patient's overall health. Proper care of the incision site is essential to prevent infection and promote healing.
