Mobile Wound Care Sacral Ulcer Service by Afra@Home
A sacral ulcer, also called a sacral pressure ulcer or a sacral decubitus ulcer, is a kind of wound that develops on the skin over the sacrum, which is the triangular-shaped bone at the base of the spine. These ulcers generally occur due to prolonged pressure or friction on the skin, especially in individuals who are immobile or have limited mobility.
Expert Mobile Wound Care for Sacral Ulcers
Patients who suffer from sacral ulcers often experience discomfort and difficulties while traveling for wound care, especially if they are bedridden, wheelchair-bound, or have medical conditions that limit their ability to change positions frequently. Prolonged pressure on specific body areas, such as the sacrum, can lead to pressure ulcers.
