Experience in Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine Nursing for a Patient with Pulmonary Abscess
This article summarizes the nursing experience of combining acupoint application and topical herbal fumigation with Western medical treatment for skin care in a case of lung abscess. By implementing Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)-specific nursing interventions, including scheduled dressing changes, wound debridement, dietary guidance, and lifestyle education, the patient’s clinical symptoms and skin ulceration caused by the abscess showed significant improvement. The case study aims to provide practical references for skin management in similar complex cases, highlighting the clinical value of integrated TCM and Western nursing in chronic infectious diseases.
