A foot ulcer is an open wound that poorly heals

A foot ulcer is a type of wound that can develop for a variety of causes. Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) causes a wound to form due to a lack of or restriction in circulation. Peripheral neuropathy, or numbness of the nerves, can cause an ulcer to grow in an area of elevated pressure.

Is My Wound Going To Get Better With Medication?

When a wound is detected early enough, treatment such as antibiotics may help the ulcer heal faster. In the vast majority of instances, however, more sophisticated wound care is required. This requires controlling the pressures that contributed to the ulcer’s formation. A cast, fracture boot, or other pressure management system is used to accomplish this. This stage, while sometimes disregarded by some, is crucial to wound healing.

The formation of a callus is caused by areas of high pressure beneath the foot. While a Houston podiatrist can remove a callus, the pressure that caused the callus to form remains. The callus will reappear until the stresses of walking are altered.

When a corn develops between the toes, it is called a soft corn. The bones in two neighboring toes rub against one another. A corn forms as a result of the pressure on the skin. The corn is a lump of hard, dead skin between the toes. The pressure creates pain between the toes. Additionally, the tissue beneath the corn may become irritated or infected.

Callus formation on the soles of feet

A callus and a plantar wart are two separate things. A callus develops when the skin thickens in an area of intense pressure. The skin’s outer layer is “dead,” yet it adds to the pressure beneath the foot, creating discomfort. A callus is treated with cushioning and the safe removal of dead skin, which is usually done by a foot specialist in Houston.
