Overview

Non-healing ulcers are wounds that do not progress towards recovery for weeks or months despite a patient’s best efforts. Patients feel a sense of helplessness when their ulcer fails to show any signs of healing. Dr. Hitesh at Authentic Hair Transplant and Cosmetic Centre understands this, and offers expertise in Ulcer Treatment to help patients on their journey to recovery.

Causes of Non-Healing Ulcers

A variety of causes can lead to a non-healing ulcer. It can be caused due to medical conditions, like poor circulation, diabetes, and arthritis. It can also be a result of the improper healing of a wound or a low level of immunity. Dr. Hitesh diagnoses a patient’s individual condition to understand the cause of their non-healing ulcer and chooses a personalized treatment plan accordingly.

The Role of a Plastic Surgeon in Non-Healing Ulcers

Dr. Hitesh is an experienced plastic surgeon at Authentic Hair Transplant and Cosmetic Centre and is dedicated to helping patients with all the common and complicated Non-Healing Ulcers issues. With the comprehensive knowledge of the body and skin, Dr. Hitesh understands the underlying tissue issues and changes caused by non-healing ulcers to come up with the most effective plan for treatment.

Comprehensive Evaluation and Diagnosis

Dr. Hitesh at Authentic Hair Transplant and Cosmetic Centre conducts a comprehensive evaluation to assess the ulcer’s degree of complexity. The evaluation includes the description of the symptoms, medical history, and a physical exam. Using advanced diagnostic techniques like CT scans or MRI surveillance, Dr. Hitesh pinpoints the underlying cause of the ulcer to provide a focused treatment plan.

Treatment Options for Non-Healing Ulcers

Depending on a patient’s individual condition, Dr. Hitesh may suggest any of the following treatments for non-healing ulcers:

Medication & antibiotics: Dr. Hitesh may prescribe antibiotics and medications to get rid of the infection or abnormalities causing the ulcer.
dressing and topical agents: Dr. Hitesh may use wound dressings and topical antibiotics to reduce the level of bacterial contamination and promote tissue healing.
Immediate repair and reconstruction: For deep ulcers, Dr. Hitesh may suggest surgical reconstruction to restore and repair the affected area.

Post-Treatment Recovery and Follow-Up

Once Dr. Hitesh completes the non-healing ulcer treatment, the focus shifts to healing and recovery. Dr. Hitesh works with a patient to ensure proper wound care and follow-up to prevent any further issues. With the help of regularly scheduled follow-ups, Dr. Hitesh can modify the treatment plan if necessary and keep track of the healing process.

Preventive Measures for Recurrence

Maintaining proper hygiene and taking preventive measures is essential to ensuring that the non-healing ulcer does not recur. A few preventive measures Dr. Hitesh recommends are:

Not touching the wound too often or scrubbing it too harshly
Keeping the affected area dry and clean
Restricting activities that put stress on the area
Wearing appropriate shoes for foot ulcers
Regularly checking feet for any signs of infection

Eating healthy and consuming a balanced diet
