What is a "drain"?
A drain refers to a small tube inserted into a wound or organ to help remove fluids like blood or infectious liquids. This helps healing by preventing fluid buildup, reducing infection risk, and allowing tissues to heal properly. Drains usually have tiny holes that let fluids pass through into a container or out of the body, depending on the medical situation.
