Postoperative compression care is a long-standing traditional method of post-operative care! Compression can play a role in preventing scar hyperplasia and recurrence. However, in some embarrassing positions, it is generally difficult to pressurize, and it is not possible to continue to persevere. For example, the scar between the breasts is an awkward position for both men and women, especially for women, the middle depression is also deep; for example, the position of the back spine, the waist is just indented, and it is easy to ignore; the almost depressed position on the body Pressurized in place.


The experience of bandaging wounds in hospital after surgery, I learned some techniques of compression nursing with experts, and I have been using this technique to guide everyone after surgery.
