Ulcerated Feet

Ulcerated feet are open sores or wounds that develop on the skin, often on the bottom of the foot. They commonly occur in people with conditions like diabetes, poor circulation, or nerve damage, which can reduce pain sensation and impair healing. These ulcers can become infected if not treated properly and may lead to serious complications, including tissue damage or amputation. Managing ulcerated feet involves good foot hygiene, control of underlying conditions, and medical care to promote healing and prevent infection. Early intervention is essential to prevent worsening of the wound.
