Comparative Effectiveness of Diode Laser Therapy and Topical Turmeric Extract Ointment in Promoting Healing of Wounds in a Murine Model.

The intricate biological process of wound healing is influenced by a wide range of therapeutic techniques. In this work, the effects of topical turmeric extract ointment and diode laser therapy on wound healing in a mouse model were investigated. Out of the sixty mice, three groups of twenty male mice each were created. Three groups received treatment: the first was a control group that got no treatment; the second group received topical application of 5% curcumin twice a day; and the third group received diode laser therapy, which involved direct laser beam therapy for five minutes a day at an output power of 100 mW at an 810 nm wavelength. Over the course of two weeks, the study examined histological changes and wound closure rates. On days 0 through 14, the wound area was measured with digital calipers to provide quantifiable statistics about the process of healing. In histological analyses, epithelializations, and collagen deposition, in addition to inflammatory cells, were investigated using hematoxylin and eosin staining. It was demonstrated by comparing the outcomes to those of a control group that diode laser therapy and turmeric extract ointment are both successful therapeutic options. The results demonstrate that different therapies, while with differing degrees of effectiveness, greatly quicken the healing process of wounds. According to these results, topical turmeric extract ointment could be used as an additional or supporting therapy to aid in the healing of wounds during medical treatments.
