Pressure Ulcer

Moving Feet and Wound Care can help with a myriad of common conditions to help you feel happy and pain-free. These include pressure ulcer problems (bedsores) in Cary, NC. If you or someone you love has one or more, it's critical to work with us to get the care you need. Serving Charlotte, Durham, Wilmington, and Clayton, NC.

Diagnosis First 

We begin by diagnosing your ulcers and determining the best course of action to help. We'll start by asking a series of questions, such as when they appeared, how much they hurt, and whether you've had them before. Furthermore, we want to know what kind of assistance and care are currently available to you. Then, we'll take a look at the area to figure out whether you have:
  • Localized changes in your skin texture based on pressure to that area 
  • Shallow open wounds or tissue loss in the impacted area (the sore itself)
  • Full-thickness wounds in the area that may or may not have tunneling 
  • Obvious pain and tenderness in the impacted area that affects you 

Treatment Next 

Moving Feet and Wound Care is more than capable of managing a pressure ulcer for Cary, NC, residents. With the support of our team of experts, you can minimize unnecessary pressure on the impacted area and reduce your current ulcer issues. We'll provide treatments like:
  • Reducing pressure on the impacted area using a variety of care techniques 
  • Providing support surfaces that make it easier for you to change position easily 
  • Cleaning the wound regularly with a gentle cleanser when it's not open 
  • Managing open wounds with water or saline and applying a dressing
  • Bandaging the impacted area to reduce potential infection risks 
  • Removing impacted tissues and providing medicines to minimize your pain

Prevention Treatments 

After treating this condition, it's critical to find prevention methods that keep you strong and healthy. Often, these include specialized support techniques that help you avoid excessive immobility. They're not always within our care reach, but we can at least:
  • Find ways to improve your mobility to minimize unnecessary and excessive pressure 
  • Teach you how to spot early symptoms and find ways to redistribute your body properly 
  • Identify a care specialist who can keep you from staying immobile for too long 
  • Locate a facility that can help with your living needs until you regain your mobility
