Chronic Wound Care
Diabetic foot and pressure ulcers. Early assessment and consistent care are what preserve a limb.
Operations in this area
- Diabetic Foot Ulcers and Their TreatmentA diabetic foot ulcer is a wound that will not close on its own, because nerve and blood-vessel damage have changed both how the foot senses pressure and how it heals. This page explains why these ulcers form, which signs need to be looked at the same day, and how wound care is actually run. Diabetic foot treatment is an ongoing service rather than a single operation.
- Pressure Ulcers (Pressure Injuries) and Their TreatmentA pressure ulcer forms when skin and the tissue beneath it are damaged by sustained pressure over a bony prominence, usually in someone who cannot change position by themselves. This page explains how these wounds develop, who is at risk, what genuinely makes a difference at home, and when reconstructive surgery is considered. Pressure ulcer care is a day-by-day service, not a one-off procedure.
