Chang Jiawei initially judged that it might be cellulitis.
Cellulitis is not uncommon in clinical practice. Once an exposed wound starts to go untreated, bacteria can easily continue to invade beneath the skin, causing massive infection and even necrosis of the subcutaneous adipose tissue. The appearance of subcutaneous adipose tissue resembles a honeycomb, hence the name cellulitis. Simply put, it can be thought of as an adjective describing inflammation of the subcutaneous fat tissue.
Through sterile gloves, Nie Jiamin's fingers gently pressed on the boy's wound to confirm it was an indentative edema, with pus-filled blisters under the skin, necessitating surgical incision, cleaning with saline, and drainage.
Turning his head, Nie Jiamin said to the nurse preparing materials, "We need to perform an abscess incision, please prepare the saline."
