Significance of Granulation tissue
Granulation tissue is a crucial component of the wound healing process, consisting of new connective tissue and microscopic blood vessels that form on the surface of wounds. This tissue plays a vital role in recovery by promoting tissue repair and healing. Different therapeutic approaches, such as Kshara sutra therapy, aim to enhance the formation of healthy granulation tissue while eliminating unhealthy tissue. Its presence indicates the body’s efforts to heal and recover from injuries or surgical procedures.
