Arterial Wound Treatment

Arterial Wounds & Ulcers

Specialized treatment for wounds caused by poor arterial circulation. When blood flow is compromised, wounds struggle to heal—but advanced regenerative therapies can make all the difference.

What Are Arterial Wounds?

Arterial ulcers develop when narrowed or blocked arteries can't deliver enough oxygen-rich blood to tissues

Common Locations

  • Feet and toes (especially tips)
  • Heels and ankles
  • Between toes
  • Lower legs (rare)

Key Characteristics

  • Pale or gray wound bed
  • Severe, throbbing pain (worse at night)
  • Cool skin around wound
  • Minimal bleeding

Causes & Risk Factors

Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD)

Plaque buildup narrows arteries, reducing blood flow to extremities. Primary cause of arterial ulcers.

Smoking

Tobacco damages blood vessels and significantly worsens circulation problems.

Diabetes & High Blood Pressure

Both conditions accelerate arterial damage and increase ulcer risk.

Advanced Treatment Approach

Arterial wounds require both vascular intervention and regenerative care

Vascular Assessment

First step: evaluate arterial blood flow. May require referral to vascular surgeon for angioplasty, stenting, or bypass surgery.

Stem Cell Therapy

Promotes angiogenesis (new blood vessel formation) critical for healing tissue with poor circulation.

Regenerative Biologics

Amniotic grafts and growth factors accelerate healing once circulation is restored.

Infection Control

Arterial wounds are prone to infection. Aggressive antibiotic therapy and debridement when needed.

Critical Warning Signs

Seek immediate medical attention if you experience:

  • Sudden severe pain in leg or foot
  • Cold, pale, or blue toes/foot
  • Black or dark tissue (gangrene)
  • Loss of sensation or movement

These symptoms may indicate critical limb ischemia requiring emergency vascular intervention.
