What is the difference in the use of forceps and blunt probe?

Forceps are surgical instruments used to grasp, hold, or manipulate tissues during procedures, providing precision and control. In contrast, a blunt probe is typically used to explore or dissect tissues without cutting, allowing for gentle manipulation and separation of structures. While both tools serve different purposes in surgery, forceps are primarily for grasping and holding, whereas blunt probes are for exploration and soft tissue handling.
