Question 16

Accepted Answer

Follow the treating clinician’s advice. New or worsening pain, swelling, discharge, fever, spreading redness or a change in general condition should be reported promptly.

Question 17

What causes a foot ulcer in people with diabetes?

Accepted Answer

Diabetic foot ulcers usually develop from a combination of reduced sensation (neuropathy), poor circulation, and repeated pressure on one area of the foot — small injuries can go unnoticed and worsen because the person cannot feel them forming.

Question 18

What does a foot ulcer look like?

Accepted Answer

Foot ulcers commonly appear as a round, punched-out-looking sore, often on the ball of the foot, heel, or a toe, sometimes surrounded by thickened or callused skin. Depth and appearance vary depending on how advanced the wound is.

Question 19

How are foot ulcers treated at home?

Accepted Answer

Home care typically involves regular cleaning and dressing of the wound, offloading pressure from the area, and close monitoring for early signs of infection, alongside whatever your doctor has prescribed. A home nurse can help maintain a consistent dressing routine for these wounds.

Question 20

How long does it take for a diabetic foot ulcer to heal?

Accepted Answer

Healing timelines vary widely based on wound depth, blood sugar control, and circulation. Some ulcers may heal in weeks with appropriate care, while others take longer, so the treating clinician should guide follow-up.

Question 21

When should I call a doctor about a foot ulcer?

Accepted Answer

See a doctor promptly if the wound is growing, has a foul odor, is producing pus, if the surrounding skin is red, warm, or swollen, or if you develop a fever — these can be signs of a spreading infection.

Question 22

Can a nurse dress a varicose vein ulcer at home?

Accepted Answer

Yes, prescribed dressing changes for a varicose or venous ulcer can be arranged at home in Kolkata.

Question 23

Do you provide compression bandaging for every ulcer?

Accepted Answer

Question 24

How do I book a venous ulcer visit?

Accepted Answer

Call or WhatsApp +91 91631 12289 with your location, the dressing instructions and preferred visit time.

Question 25

What causes a varicose vein ulcer?

Accepted Answer

Varicose vein ulcers, also called venous ulcers, usually develop when weakened vein valves in the legs stop blood from flowing back to the heart properly. Blood pools in the lower leg over time, and the resulting pressure and swelling can break down the skin, most often around the ankle. They can be a sign of underlying chronic venous insufficiency, not just a surface wound.

Question 26

What does a venous ulcer look like?

Accepted Answer

Venous ulcers typically appear as shallow, irregular-shaped sores near the ankle, often with red or brownish skin discoloration around them and some swelling in the leg. They can weep fluid and are usually less painful than arterial ulcers, though this varies.

Question 27

How is a venous ulcer treated at home?

Accepted Answer

Home management usually centers on regular wound dressing, compression therapy to support circulation, and leg elevation, along with any topical treatment your doctor has prescribed. A home nurse can carry out dressing changes and monitor the wound for signs of infection between doctor visits.

Question 28

How long does a venous ulcer take to heal?

Accepted Answer

Healing time varies by wound size, how consistently compression therapy is used, and overall vein health. Some may heal in weeks, while others take longer. Because these ulcers can recur, ongoing compression and skin care should follow the treating clinician’s advice even after the wound closes.

Question 29

When should I see a doctor about a leg ulcer that isn't healing?

Accepted Answer

If a wound on your leg has not started improving within a few weeks, is getting larger, or has increasing pain, redness, warmth, odor, or discharge, see a doctor promptly. These can be signs of infection or a wound that needs a different treatment approach.

Question 30

Can burn dressing be done at home in Kolkata?

Accepted Answer

Yes, when the treating doctor has provided a home-care plan and confirmed that a routine dressing visit is appropriate.

Question 31

Will the nurse prescribe a burn cream?

Accepted Answer

No. The nurse follows the treating clinician’s written prescription and does not independently prescribe or change medication.

Question 40

Accepted Answer

This service provides nursing support. Equipment recommendations should come from the treating clinician or rehabilitation team.

Question 41

How often should a bedsore be dressed?

Accepted Answer

The treating clinician decides the dressing schedule based on the wound and patient. The nurse follows that schedule rather than giving a generic interval.

Question 42

Why isn't my wound healing?

Accepted Answer

A wound can stall for several reasons — ongoing pressure on the area, poor circulation, infection, uncontrolled blood sugar, or inadequate nutrition. A non-healing wound of more than a few weeks should be evaluated by a doctor to identify the underlying cause.

Question 43

What counts as a non-healing or chronic wound?

Accepted Answer

A wound that shows little to no improvement after about four weeks of appropriate care may be considered non-healing or chronic, and usually needs a reassessment of the treatment approach rather than just continued dressing changes.

Question 44

How is a non-healing pressure ulcer treated?

Accepted Answer

Treatment usually combines relieving pressure on the area through repositioning and support surfaces, regular wound cleaning and dressing suited to the wound stage, and addressing contributing factors like nutrition or circulation, under a doctor’s guidance.

Question 45

Can home nursing help with a wound that won't heal?

Accepted Answer

Yes — consistent, correctly performed dressing changes and pressure relief can support the care plan, and a home nurse can maintain that routine between doctor visits. The treating clinician should guide diagnosis and treatment decisions.

Question 46

When should a non-healing wound be seen urgently?

Question 52
