Diabetic Foot Ulcer?
There are 4 stages to diabetic ulcers. 1. the ulcer has penetrated the top layer of skin 2. the ulcer has penetrated the next layer of skin 3. the depth of the ulcer has deepened to the muscle 4. the depth of the ulcer has deepened to the bone. Once it gets to the bone, the risk of amputation is far greater. Sorry, but the above is incorrect as only pressure ulcers are staged--venous, arterial and neuropathic ulcers are not staged.
What is a foot ulcer?
An ulcer is any open wound that fails to heal. The causes for foot ulcers can be many. One may be that the person has diabetes which lowers the ability of the circulatory system to fight off infections. The other possibility is that the person is bedridden an the constant pressure on a part of their foot has caused the tissues to die. This is called a bedsore or decubitus ulcer. Another kind of ulcer may occur as a result of a fungal infection called tinea pedis. In any of these cases, if you are unsure of the cause or the treatment, consult a PHCP, primary health care provider.
How should you clean a cut on your foot?
First, You should probably put it under some warm water and with a wash cloth, the water and soap, gently rub it in a circular motion until its clean. this should take about 5 minutes. make sure where ever you do this, you have acess to some socks and a bandaid, without putting your foot back on the floor, because that will make it dirty. Make sure that your foots clean enough to were the bandaid will still be clean when you put it on. Put some socks on (not already used!) after you put the bandaid on. and try to sit down for a little while and dont use your foot. if you need to go anywhere, make sure you put 2 socks on the foot at once before you put your shoes on. This will make sure the band-aid wont come off and your cut and foot wont get dirty. Hope this helps!
