Foot Wound or Ulcer

There are many potential causes for open wounds or sores that occur on the feet or legs.  Wounds are called ulcers in medical terminology, and these may occur from conditions such as neuropathy or nerve damage, swelling, trauma, poor circulation, and vasculitis.  An open wound needs to be properly treated as soon as it occurs so that it may heal as quickly as possible.  This can help to avoid potential complications such as infection that can occur with an open wound.  If you or a loved one has a wound, please call our office as soon as possible at 586-298-1585.
