The objective is to study the effect of topical silver nano gel on wound healing. The effect of topical silver nano gel on wound healing was tested on 50 cases of surgical wounds of any origin out of which one group of 25 cases were treated with topical nano silver gel and other similar group of 25 cases were treated with conventional dressings such as betadine, hydrogen peroxide and Vaseline gauge etc. The effect of topical nano silver gel on wound healing was found to be significantly higher than conventional dressings. Nano Silver gel was found to be very good antiseptic, anti inflammatory and anti microbial as compared to conventional antiseptics in our study of 50 cases.
