Changing the dressing can lead to mechanical irritation of the wound, which can cause pain. Especially for wounds that are still fresh or not fully healed, any manipulation can be painful.
If the wound is infected, it may be more painful than usual. The infection can cause redness, swelling, heat around the wound, and increased pain.
In addition, the dressing can stick to the wound, and its removal can lead to damage to new tissues and cause pain.
Improper techniques when changing the dressing, such as too sudden movements, can lead to discomfort and pain, so I recommend a lot of gentleness during this activity.
If the new, gentle dressing change technique does not work, consult your attending physician.
