When the nurse removes the bandage from the area, the nurse notes that the skin and tissue around the wound are reddened, very swollen, and warm. The wound drainage is foul smelling and greenish-yellow. The client's current temperature is 100.6 F. Left radial pulse is +2 and capillary. Want Online Help?
