What should I do to make sure my surgical wounds heal well?

Well, I think you need to pay attention to your nutrition status and make sure you're getting enough protein, enough calories, enough minerals in your diet, so basically a well-rounded overall diet. Secondly, it's really important the wound remains clean and doesn't get infected. So if your wound is oozing fluids, the dressings need to be changed and you mustn't let the dressings become totally soaked. So care to all these factors will promote good wound healing.
