Woundlocal Case

The Team

The Background

Robert, an 80-year-old retiree with underlying vascular issues, had been grappling with non-healing ischemic ulcers on his foot for an extended period.

Ischemic ulcers are caused by poor blood flow to the affected area.

They often occur due to conditions like peripheral artery disease.

It is estimated that around 1% to 3% of individuals with peripheral artery disease will develop ischemic ulcers.

Patient Experience

Robert's ischemic ulcers posed significant challenges, impacting both his physical and emotional well-being. The chronic wounds, resulting from compromised blood flow, inflicted prolonged pain, limited mobility, and recurring setbacks, taking a toll on his confidence and overall outlook. The urgency to find a specialized care approach tailored to his unique condition became apparent.

"I felt like I had lost a part of myself. The pain from my ischemic ulcers was unbearable, and it seemed like there was no end in sight. But then I discovered Woundlocal, and that's when everything changed,"
