Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the wound healing in the participants who underwent the clean surgical procedure, by applying honey dressing and common Iodine solution dressing, participants will have no other co-morbidities like Diabetes, Anemia, etc. which can make the results biased. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Do the iodine solutions are enough to counter the infections caused by resistant strains of bacteria?
* What is the efficacy and efficiency of honey dressing in wound care?

Participants will be tasked to

* Ensure strict follow-up in the hospital dressing room
* Half of the participants will apply common iodine solution dressing and the other half will be applied honey dressing.

Researchers will compare Iodine dressing (Control group) with Honey dressing (Experimental group) to see if Honey dressing is better in the prevention of post-surgery wound infection and if it is cost-efficient and its efficacy.
