Why Is Incisional Draining So Important Following Surgery?

​

Incisional draining is important following surgery to prevent infection and promote healing. A surgical incision creates an open wound in the skin that is susceptible to infection by bacteria and other microorganisms. Draining the incision helps to remove any fluid or blood that may have accumulated in the wound, reducing the risk of infection and allowing you to heal more quickly.
