What Treatments Are Available for Skin Conditions?
Treatment varies depending on the specific skin condition. For pressure ulcers, treatment involves relieving pressure, cleaning the wound, and applying appropriate dressings. Topical corticosteroids may be prescribed for dermatitis, eczema, and psoriasis to reduce inflammation and itching. Antibiotics are used to treat bacterial infections like cellulitis. Nurses must follow care plans meticulously and monitor the effectiveness of treatments, making adjustments as needed.
