Pressure Sores/Ulcers
Pressure ulcers, also sometimes known as bedsores or pressure sores, are a type of injury that affects areas of the skin and underlying tissue. They are caused when the affected area of skin is placed under too much pressure.
Pressure ulcers can range in severity from patches of discoloured skin to open wounds that expose the underlying bone or muscle.
Sores often develop on the areas that take the pressure when we sit or lie down, such as the:
- Hips.
- Buttocks.
- Base of the spine.
- Heels.
- Ankles.
- Shoulders, especially where bony prominences aren’t protected by much fat.
