Pressure Sore (Bed Sore) Treatment in Jaipur | Reconstructive Surgery by Dr. Sushrut Kalra
Pressure sores, also known as bed sores, develop when prolonged pressure on the skin, usually over bony areas like the lower back or hips, cuts off proper blood flow to the tissue. Over time, this can lead to deep wounds that don't heal on their own and can become seriously infected if left untreated.
Dr. Sushrut Kalra offers advanced pressure sore treatment in Jaipur, using surgical techniques suited to more severe or non healing wounds. This typically involves carefully removing damaged tissue and, when needed, using healthy tissue from a nearby area to close and protect the wound properly.
