When should I seek treatment for my wound at a wound healing center?

• Ask your doctor about visiting our Wound Healing Center if:
• You’ve had a sore that won’t heal for more than 30 days (commonly experienced by people with diabetes).
• You have a sore with increasing pain, redness or swelling, foul odor, or a change in color.
• You have a surgical wound that has become infected.

What do I bring to my first appointment?

• A list of any medications you’re currently taking as well as any allergies you’re aware of.
• Medical records including x-ray films if you have them.
• Insurance forms or cards.
