Leg Cellulitis with Ulceration in a Diabetic
COMPLETE HEALING WITH ADVANCED WOUND CARE : NO OPERATION WAS DONE
CELLULITIS TREATMENT :
Treatment of cellulitis mayinvolve :
- Antibiotics
- Dressings/Compression
- Medicines to increase blood flow
- Surgery in selective cases
- My usual protocol is to treat the cellulitis with non surgical methods. Only in cases where I consider that the situation may be Limb Threatening Or Life Threatening do I go in for surgery.
Diabetic Charcot Foot
This is the case of an infected Charcot foot, with multiple areas of lysis and osteomyelitis of the tarsals and first metatarsal as is evident from the xray. Patient also had calcification of peripheral arteries. He came from one of the gulf countries where he had been under treatment since 5-6 months and was then advised forefoot/below knee amputation.
Patient was anatomically debrided, rheologics and other supportive treatment started. Offloading was with the help of a Patellar Tendon Bearing brace.
12 months later the foot had completely healed, lytic areas no longer evident on X ray. Patient was mobilized in a pressure reducing footwear.
