Veterinary Spray – GOHEAL SPRAY: Wound And Burns Taking A U-Turn

Pets marvellous creatures, always ready to explore and learn more about their surroundings. They are little balls of energy who are always ready to run off to the fields whenever they get an opportunity to do so. Well, running off to the fields is just a phrase, our pets are usually confined to the house and in most house gardens, right? Well, we all love our pets regardless of species. Cows, buffaloes, small pet animals such as dogs, cats or birdies, no matter what species, we are all deeply connected to them. As much as we adore them, we care for them. There are many instances of them getting scratched, hurt or getting disturbed by wounds and injuries. Let’s have a closer look at some of the commonly seen wound-injury phenomena!In today’s blog, let us understand more about wounds, their types and healing process as well as preventive care and medicinal support which we can offer them to help recover from wounds and injuries faster!

WHAT ARE WOUNDS?

Wounds are basically injuries that cause tears in the skin or other body tissues. For today, let us learn more about skin wounds and injuries. For skin, skin is a barrier that protects the internal environment of the body from the external environment and is a rather tough organ that helps in protecting the internal layers of the body. Skin is also termed as the largest organ as it is present literally everywhere in the body!

Skin also anchors hair or fur which helps in protecting the body as well as provides insulation to the same. Skin also has certain receptors which help the brain detect the sensations of touch, heat, and cold. However, if the continuity of skin is broken or if there is a tear, or laceration of the skin, we can term it a wound or injury. Injury is basically any tissue, or cell getting damaged due to some or other reasons. For superficial skin wounds, trauma to the skin is the major one. Trauma again could be caused due to either physical or chemical agents. Let us break this down further –

TRAUMA DUE TO PHYSICAL AGENTS:

Physical agents refer to wounds and injuries caused by mechanical agents such as rocks, stones, tree branches, twigs, steel wires, etc. there are endless possibilities of getting wounded by such agents. For example, it is not uncommon to find cats getting seriously injured in a cat fight. They may end up getting scratched or bitten by fellow stray cats and dogs. Dogs, may get bruises and wounds in a similar manner as well. Thus, it is not uncommon for pets to get wounded or bruised.

TRAUMA DUE TO CHEMICAL& BIOLOGICAL AGENTS

Chemical agents such as alkalis and acids can cause burn wounds on the skin and pets as well as strays could get wounded by accident. As far as biological agents are concerned viruses such as foot and mouth disease virus manifest themselves as vesicles around mouth and foot regions and on bursting of these vesicles, they leave a raw open wound which is particularly extremely painful.

TYPES OF WOUNDS

Wounds can be classified as open or closed type depending on the type of injury or trauma. For today, let us focus on the types of external wounds:

Lacerations: These types of wounds are caused by the tearing of tissues that have uneven edges. E.g., Injury due to steel wire
Penetrating Wounds: Deep wounds such as those caused by stab injury or wood stick penetrating the body
Abrasions: These are rather a superficial type of wound [on the skin] which are not deeper than the epidermis. E.g., Skin abrasions.
Bite Wounds: Caused by the bite of an animal such as a snake, dog, etc. immediate medical help is needed.
Virulent Wounds: Wounds caused by infectious agents such as FMD Virus

WHICH SYMPTOMS CAN I OBSERVE?

While mostly, wounds create a sense of pain and hurt, it is usually invisible as our pets cannot communicate with us directly, there are other signs and symptoms which could be manifested in these forms –

Localised bleeding
The area of the wound is sensitive to touch
There is a visible wound that may or may not bleed
There is weakness, paralysis or function loss in that dependent area
There might be febrile disturbances observed
If the nerve or local nerve endings are affected, paresis of that region is well observed phenomenon

HOW DOES A WOUND HEAL?

We all know that nature is the biggest teacher and healer, and it is particularly true when it comes to healing wounds. Let us quickly look through the process through which our bodies heal the wounds:

Wound healing is a complex series of interactions between various cell types, mediators etc. there are 4 steps in the wound healing process ie.

Haemostasis
Inflammation
Proliferation
Remodelling

1. Haemostasis:

when there is a tissue injury, the initial response is haemostasis or stopping the bleeding process. This is brought about by platelets a type of cell in our blood that helps in the clotting process.

2. Inflammation:

Inflammation increases vascular permeability and recruits certain cells such as neutrophils, and monocytes which act as a defense mechanism against the micro-organisms which could be potentially harmful to the body that gained entry via the open wound. There are 5 signs of inflammation, they are-

Redness in the area
Pain in the area
Increased heat in the area
Swelling in the affected area
Temporary function loss

3. Proliferation and Remodelling of wound:

There is the proliferation of epithelial cells [they form granulation tissue] as well as collagen. Also, new capillary growth occurs in the proliferation phase which is followed by a remodelling phase where new collagen fibres are rearranged forming an organised structure that increases the tensile strength of the wound.

FAST-TRACKING WOUND HEALING

As mentioned above, wounds can heal naturally on their own with the help of the complex cascade of mechanisms our body has. However, it may take anywhere between three days to a weeks’ time to heal depending upon the type of wound and the level of injury. Thus, we always apply certain anti-bacterial healing creams which help our body to cope with trauma and injury thus, healing the wounds rather quickly. Goheal spray (pet wound spray) is one such medicine that helps in treating superficial wounds caused by burns, trauma or FMD- created wounds. GOHEAL SPRAY is the best Homeopathic Veterinary Medicine for external use only to treat animal wounds caused due to any injury, FMD, burns, etc. thus, an added aid to nature, Goheal spray (animal wound spray) helps to fast-track the healing process, which means, there is less pain, less hurt and less time required to heal!
