Diabetic foot ulcers are open sores or wounds that occur in approximately 15% of patients with diabetes, commonly located on the bottom of the foot. If not properly treated, they can become infected and lead to amputation.
Venous leg ulcers are the most common type of chronic wound, caused by venous insufficiency — poor blood flow returning from the legs to the heart. They typically appear on the lower leg between the ankle and knee.
Pressure ulcers (bedsores) develop when sustained pressure cuts off blood flow to skin and underlying tissue. They most often affect patients who are bedridden or use a wheelchair, forming over bony prominences.
Surgical wounds that fail to heal properly can become a serious complication post-operatively. Risk factors include infection, poor circulation, diabetes, and obesity. Our specialists provide targeted care to promote healing and prevent complications.
A wound is considered chronic when it fails to progress through the normal stages of healing within 30 days. Chronic wounds affect millions of Americans and are often linked to diabetes, venous disease, poor circulation, or compromised immunity.
