Conventional wound care clinics often take a one-size-fits-all approach, focusing solely on cleaning and dressing your wound with various ointments and compression dressings.
At Vein Specialists, we understand that non-healing wounds can be due to a variety of hard-to-detect causes. These include venous insufficiency, arterial insufficiency or neuropathy.
That’s why our experienced providers at Vein Specialists take a comprehensive approach. This involves meticulously evaluating you to identify the root cause of your leg wound using the most advanced ultrasound technology.
Our goal is to expedite your recovery, alleviate your discomfort and restore your quality of life as swiftly as possible.
More common than arterial ulcers, venous ulcers often affect younger, healthier individuals. They typically appear just above the ankle on the inside surface of the lower calf and are associated with a strong family history of venous insufficiency.
Many patients inquire whether bulging veins can lead to more serious complications, and the answer is yes. Varicose veins are the most recognized sign of venous insufficiency and if left untreated, venous disease can progress from varicose veins to leg swelling, skin discoloration and leg skin thickening, bleeding veins and ultimately, venous ulcers.
We offer a range of minimally invasive treatments proven highly effective in treating venous ulcers by sealing the leaking veins with Radiofrequency or LASER energy.
These ulcers are typically characterized by extreme pain and a pale, bloodless appearance.
If you have risk factors such as advanced age, diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, smoking or a family history of Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD), your leg wound could be a sign of underlying arterial insufficiency.
These ulcers most commonly affect individuals with diabetes due to the repeated stress on feet with diminished sensation and altered musculoskeletal structure.
Don’t settle for repeated wound care visits that offer little progress. Dr. Magnant, Dr. Kammerlocher and our wound care Fort Myers team at Vein Specialists will get to the root of your problem.
Picture a life free from chronic leg wounds. Our personalized wound care Fort Myers evaluation and tailored treatment plans are designed to address the root cause or the non-healing wounds for faster, more effective healing.
Schedule your leg wound and venous evaluation today at Vein Specialists. It’s time to break free from the cycle of frustration and finally heal your wounds.
For chronic or non-healing wounds, a vascular surgeon or a wound care specialist is ideal. They can assess underlying conditions like venous or arterial disease that may prevent proper healing.
Arterial ulcers and neuropathic ulcers are often the most difficult to heal due to poor blood flow or reduced sensation, especially in patients with diabetes or Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD).
The most effective wound care addresses the root cause. At Vein Specialists, we use advanced diagnostics and minimally invasive treatments to heal wounds from the inside out.
No referral is necessary to schedule an appointment at Vein Specialists. However, some insurance plans may require it – check with your provider for details.
