Leg & Foot Ulcers
Comprehensive Care for Hard-to-Heal Ulcers
Specialized Care for Chronic Wounds
Leg and foot ulcers are open sores that fail to heal or repeatedly return. These wounds can appear with or without pain and are often accompanied by swelling, skin discoloration, burning, itching, or dry, scaly skin. Because ulcers can worsen quickly — especially in patients with diabetes or circulation problems — early evaluation and treatment are essential.
The most common types include venous stasis ulcers, which appear above the ankle and are linked to swelling and varicose veins; arterial (ischemic) ulcers, which occur on the feet and toes due to poor blood flow; and neurotrophic (diabetic) ulcers, which form at pressure points in people with nerve damage. Each type has a distinct appearance and requires a tailored approach to healing.
Our team provides comprehensive wound care, including cleaning, protective dressings, infection management, compression therapy, and evaluation of underlying vascular or neurologic conditions. We also offer guidance on daily foot inspections, skin care, proper footwear, and lifestyle changes to prevent recurrence and support long-term healing.
