Expert Wound Care for Foot & Ankle Injuries
Proper wound care is essential for preventing infection, promoting healing, and avoiding complications—especially for individuals with diabetes, poor circulation, or chronic conditions. Foot and ankle wounds that go untreated can lead to serious issues, including infections, ulcers, and even the risk of amputation. At Arch Foot & Ankle, we provide specialized wound care to ensure optimal healing and long-term foot health.

Foot wounds can develop due to various factors, including:
Diabetes & Peripheral Neuropathy – Reduced sensation can lead to unnoticed injuries.
Poor Circulation – Limits the body’s ability to heal wounds properly.
Pressure Sores & Ulcers – Common in individuals with limited mobility.
Trauma & Injuries – Cuts, scrapes, or puncture wounds from daily activities or sports.
Surgical Wounds – Incisions that require proper care to heal correctly.
