Chronic wounds are wounds that don't heal in the expected timeframe, often taking weeks or even months. Unlike acute wounds that follow a predictable healing process, chronic wounds get stuck due to various underlying factors.
Vascular Disease: Poor blood circulation can deprive tissues of oxygen and nutrients.
Diabetes: High blood sugar can impair wound healing.
Pressure Injuries: Prolonged pressure on the skin, often in immobile patients.
Infection: Persistent infection can hinder the healing process.
If you have a wound that isn't healing, seek medical attention. Proper wound care and addressing the underlying cause are crucial for healing.
