What is the difference between a wound sinus track and a wound tunnel?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Same: Okay to ask your doc using these terms for clarification. They are basically the same, a long thin component to the wound. Sinus/tunnel can be difficult to treat. Okay to ask for referral to wound clinic or wound specialist. Be well.
