The best treatment for venous ulcers includes compression therapy, wound cleaning and debridement, and the use of specialized dressings to promote healing. It’s important to also address underlying circulation issues.
If left untreated, venous ulcers can become infected, lead to further tissue damage, and potentially cause long-term complications such as cellulitis or deep vein thrombosis (DVT).
Walking can help improve circulation, but it’s important to avoid putting too much strain on the ulcerated area. Leg elevation and compression therapy are also key to reducing swelling and improving circulation.
Avoid putting pressure on the ulcerated area, skipping wound care treatments, or neglecting leg elevation. Always follow the prescribed care plan to ensure the best healing outcomes.
Healing time varies depending on the severity of the ulcer and treatment adherence. With proper care, venous ulcers typically take several weeks to a few months to heal fully.
