Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An infected wound is a wound that has large amounts of bacteria and signs of infection, such as inflammation, redness, warmth, swelling, pain, and/or drainage. It may also produce pus or have a foul odor. Treatment may include antibiotics and wound care to prevent further complications. A contaminated wound may have bacteria present but may not necessarily show signs of infection. An open wound is a wound that has not healed, but it may or may not be infected. Purulent drainage is a type of drainage that is thick, yellow, or green and may indicate infection.
