Chronic Wounds & Ulcer Care

Chronic Wounds and Ulcer Care by Dr. Dharmesh JB in Bangalore

Chronic wounds and ulcers are conditions where normal healing is delayed due to underlying medical issues such as diabetes, poor blood circulation, prolonged pressure, infection, or repeated trauma. If left untreated, these wounds can lead to serious complications including deep infection, tissue loss, and even amputation. At Dr. Dharmesh JB’s Reconstructive & Microsurgery Clinic, we provide comprehensive chronic wound and ulcer care using advanced medical, surgical, and reconstructive techniques to promote healing and preserve function.

Our approach focuses on treating both the wound and its underlying cause, ensuring durable healing and reducing the risk of recurrence.

Chronic Wounds & Ulcer Care Services

Diabetic Foot Management

Diabetic foot ulcers are a common and serious complication of diabetes, often caused by neuropathy, infection, and poor circulation. Our diabetic foot management program includes:

Debridement: Removal of dead and infected tissue to stimulate healing.
Infection Control: Targeted antibiotics and wound care to prevent spread.
VAC Therapy (Negative Pressure Wound Therapy): Improves blood flow and speeds up wound closure.
Skin Grafts & Flap Coverage: Used when ulcers are deep or expose bone, tendon, or muscle.
Limb Salvage Focus: Advanced reconstruction to avoid amputation whenever possible.

Pressure Sores (Bed Sores)

Pressure sores develop due to prolonged pressure over bony areas, especially in patients who are bedridden or have limited mobility. We treat pressure sores of the back, hips, sacrum, and heels using a combination of pressure relief strategies, wound care, and surgical reconstruction.

Regular wound cleaning and debridement
Advanced dressings and infection control
Flap surgery for deep or recurrent bed sores
Post-operative care to prevent recurrence

Trophic & Venous Ulcers

Trophic ulcers (due to nerve damage) and venous ulcers (due to poor venous circulation) require long-term, structured care. Treatment includes addressing circulation problems, controlling infection, and providing advanced wound coverage.

Skin grafting for non-healing ulcer beds
