Reasons To Consider Getting A Wound Care Consultation:
1. Burns: Severe burns that cover a large area or damage deeper layers of skin.
2. Chronic wounds: Such as diabetic ulcers, pressure sores, and venous ulcers that do not heal with conventional treatments.
3. Traumatic injuries: Deep cuts, abrasions, or other injuries that result in significant skin loss.
4. Infections Severe infections that lead to the destruction of skin tissue.
5. Surgical wounds: Post-surgical sites where a large amount of skin has been removed, such as after tumor removal or mastectomy.
6. Skin diseases: Conditions like epidermolysis bullosa or necrotizing fasciitis that cause extensive skin damage.
7. Cosmetic reasons: For reconstructive surgeries, such as following a mastectomy or for aesthetic improvements after severe scarring.
