The REEDA scale stands for Redness, Edema, Ecchymosis, Discharge, and Approximation. Therefore, the signs should be put in this order. Redness is checked first to assess for any signs of inflammation, followed by Edema to check for excess fluid accumulation. Ecchymosis (bruising) is then inspected for any signs of hematoma or bleeding. Discharge is checked next for any signs of infection or abnormal amount. Finally, Approximation is assessed to ensure proper healing of the tissue.
