If you or a loved one has a wound or ulcer that hasn’t started to heal within a month, or has not healed entirely within two months, you may have a chronic wound. Underlying conditions such as diabetes, circulation problems or previous cancer treatment can cause or complicate these wounds. Other types of chronic wounds can result from pressure ulcers, trauma or infection. They include:

• Bone infections
• Diabetic foot ulcers
• Failing skin grafts
• Gangrene
• Lower-leg ulcers
• Post-operative infections
• Radiation injuries
• Slow- or non-healing surgical wounds
