Pressure Injuries (Bedsores)
What Are Pressure Injuries?
Also known as bedsores or pressure ulcers, these wounds develop from prolonged pressure on the skin, often over bony areas like the heels, hips or tailbone. They’re common in patients with limited mobility or those who spend extended time in bed or a wheelchair.
Why Treatment Matters
Without proper care, pressure injuries can deepen into muscle and bone, leading to severe infections and delayed healing. Early intervention can prevent complications and improve overall quality of life.
