Wound Care Q&A

When do I need wound care?

Through United Wound Care Centers, our team provides Advanced Wound Care for cuts, ulcers, and open sores that heal slowly or fail to heal. Nonhealing wounds occur when the damaged area has a poor blood supply, gets infected, or lacks immune support to fight infection.

The wounds treated at Pure Health Aurora include but are not limited to:

  • Diabetic ulcers
  • Venous ulcers
  • Pressure wounds
  • Surgical wounds
  • Mohs surgery wounds
  • Chronic nonhealing wounds

You have a chronic wound if it doesn’t heal within six weeks.

What are the benefits of wound care?

Expert wound care with our team at United Wound Care Centers is the best way to promote healing for non-healing wounds. Without an advanced portfolio of skin subtitutes, non-healing wounds decrease quality of life and present major health concerns. 

It’s only a matter of time before a nonhealing wound develops an infection that can spread to skin and bones and causes tissue death (gangrene). At that stage, our team must debreed the wound to prevent bacteria from spreading throughout your body, and promote the growth of new healthy tissue. 

Diabetic and venous ulcers can develop in your lower legs and feet, making them the top cause of surgical amputation when not treated effectively.
