Helping it heal.

Keep the wound clean, covered and dry as advised, and change the dressing as your GP or nurse recommends. Good nutrition, stopping smoking and managing conditions such as diabetes all help wounds heal.

Slow-healing wounds, particularly on the legs and feet, should be checked regularly.
