ABSTRACT:
Following completion of an operative procedure, the topical application of a cortisone preparation into the area of a postoperative wound is useful in ameliorating or eliminating postoperative pain. The postoperative wound can be treated with a local anesthetic agent prior to or during application of the cortisone preparation. The raw surgical surfaces of the wound are doused once with the cortisone preparation, for example, by direct spray with an atomizer or by irrigation with a syringe and needle. The cortisone is not irrigated out with saline following its application. Normal healing takes place.
