Podiatry Wound Care
We treat the five wound types and corresponding conditions
Skin Conditions
Often wounds on the feet and ankles are at the superficial level. Treating wounds to the skin is essential, especially for those at higher risk of infection, like diabetic patients.
Bone Conditions
Foot and ankle wounds can be complicated by existing bone conditions. Trust our experts to tailor your care plan to your specific needs.
Muscle Conditions
Some wounds penetrate the muscular layer. Many muscle conditions are treatable with surgical and nonsurgical options.
Ligament & Tendon Conditions
Conditions of the ligaments and tendons can limit mobility and make wound recovery more challenging. Our podiatric team knows how to handle these challenges.
Circulation Disorders
Circulation disorders affect wound care and how wounds heal. Sometimes circulation disorders slow the wound healing process, including in diabetic patients.
Other conditions
Wounds of the feet and ankles can contribute to or worsen existing conditions. Talk to our team about how to prevent complications and future conditions today.
