Open Wounds
Your body is designed to heal — but certain conditions like diabetes, poor circulation, or immune challenges can interrupt the natural process. Here’s how wound healing should work — and where it might be breaking down.
Stops the Bleeding
Right after injury, your body tries to stop blood loss by clotting. If this doesn’t happen effectively, healing is delayed from the very beginning.
Defends Against Infection
White blood cells rush in to fight bacteria and clean the wound. But if this phase lingers too long, it can cause swelling, pain, or infection.
Builds New Tissue
Healthy tissue begins to grow and cover the wound. Without enough oxygen or blood flow (common with diabetes or vascular disease), this growth is slowed — or never happens.
Closes and Strengthens the Skin
The wound contracts and closes. Scar tissue forms to protect the area. But if earlier stages were incomplete, the wound may re-open or break down again.
