Non-Healing Ulcers
Non-healing ulcers are open wounds that fail to heal within the expected time, often persisting for weeks or months. They typically result from poor circulation, diabetes, infections, or prolonged pressure on the skin.
Common Causes of Non-Healing Ulcers
Diabetic Ulcers – Poor blood flow and nerve damage lead to slow healing.
Venous Ulcers – Due to poor vein function, causing swelling and skin breakdow
Arterial Ulcers – Caused by blocked arteries, reducing oxygen supply to tissues.
Pressure Ulcers (Bedsores) – Develop from prolonged pressure on certain areas of the bod
Infected Wounds – Bacterial infections delay healing and cause further tissue damage.
Symptoms of Non-Healing Ulcers
