Foot Ulcer Specialist

Having an open wound, increases the chances of infection. If you have a non-healing wound on your lower extremity, it is essential that you act to get it healed as quickly as possible to prevent infection and further complications.

If you have diabetes, you are especially at risk for complications. The sooner a wound is treated the greater the patient’s chances are of healing.

Dr. Ebonie uses the latest technology to perform a comprehensive neurologic, vascular and orthopedic exam. Once the wounds are healed, patients are regularly followed up to help avoid future problems.

Types of Foot Ulcers

Ulcers are wounds or open sores that will not heal or keep returning. If you have questions about foot ulcers or open wounds, Dr. Ebonie can explain the condition and treatment options.

Venous Stasis Ulcers

Venous ulcers, also referred to as stasis, insufficiency or varicose ulcers, are the result of malfunctioning venous valves causing pressure in the veins to increase. These typically occur along the medial or lateral distal (lower) leg.

Neurotrophic (diabetic) Ulcers

A diabetic foot ulcer is an open sore or wound that occurs in approximately 15 percent of patients with diabetes and is commonly located on the bottom of the foot. They are highly susceptible to infection.

Arterial (ischemic) Ulcers

Ischemic (or arterial) ulcers are a type of vascular ulcer that occurs when there is inadequate blood supply to the skin. They are most frequently caused by progressive atherosclerosis (peripheral vascular disease) or arterial embolization.

Pressure Ulcers

Pressure ulcers or bedsores are localized areas of tissue damage that develop because of pressure over a bony area like the heel or ankle. They typically imply that bed-bound or nonambulatory patients develop pressure ulcers.
