The photos that follow are powerful and encouraging evidence of a client’s progress. We hope that it inspires someone struggling with a similar condition.
Coming all the way from south Trinidad, he first contacted us about a year and a half ago with a much smaller ulcer on his right leg only. But, within the year, that single ulcer unfortunately became more severe due to slow healing.
When he finally decided to commit to treatment at CWBC, the early stages showed that his legs were too painful and swollen to comfortably perform an ultrasound. So, we focused first on improving the wounds themselves.
With careful consistency, we began to see the wounds gradually became smaller and healthier. Finally seeing enough improvement, a safe ultrasound was performed to investigate the underlying cause of his non-healing ulcers.
The revelation? He was suffering from chronic venous insufficiency - more commonly known as varicose veins. Meaning the veins in his legs were not properly returning blood back to the heart, causing pressure to build up and leading to these persistent ulcers.
In identifying the root cause, targeted treatment immediately started. Since then, he has been showing tremendous improvement: his wounds continue to decrease in size, and his overall leg health is steadily getting better.
Though chronic wounds often have an underlying cause, with proper assessment, diagnosis, and consistent care, healing is possible.
If you or someone you know is struggling with non-healing leg ulcers, do not lose hope. Help is available, and improvement can happen with the right treatment.
