What Is a Non-Healing Wound?

A non-healing wound, also called a chronic wound, is any wound that fails to progress through the normal healing stages within 30 days despite appropriate treatment. These wounds become "stuck" in the inflammatory phase and cannot move forward to tissue regeneration and closure.

In healthy individuals, most wounds heal within 2-3 weeks. When a wound remains open beyond 30 days, it signals an underlying problem that requires advanced intervention. Without proper treatment, chronic wounds can lead to serious complications including infection, amputation, and reduced quality of life.

Critical Timeline

If your wound has not shown significant improvement after 30 days of standard care, you may qualify for advanced regenerative treatments covered by Medicare Part B.

Why Do Some Wounds Fail to Heal?

Normal wound healing follows four predictable stages: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. In chronic wounds, this natural progression becomes disrupted. Understanding what stops healing is the first step to finding the right treatment.

Local Factors

Issues directly at the wound site

  • Infection: Bacteria create biofilm barriers that prevent healing
  • Necrotic tissue: Dead tissue must be removed for healing to begin
  • Poor blood flow: Insufficient oxygen and nutrients reach the wound
  • Excessive moisture: Maceration weakens surrounding skin
  • Repeated trauma: Pressure or friction re-injures healing tissue

Systemic Factors

Body-wide conditions affecting healing

  • Diabetes: High blood sugar impairs immune function and circulation
  • Vascular disease: Blocked arteries limit blood flow to extremities
  • Malnutrition: Lack of protein and vitamins needed for repair
  • Medications: Steroids and immunosuppressants slow healing
  • Advanced age: Slower cellular regeneration and immune response

The Stuck Healing Cycle

In chronic wounds, excessive inflammation creates a hostile environment. The wound remains in the inflammatory phase indefinitely—unable to move forward to tissue regeneration. This is where regenerative medicine makes the difference.

Stem cell therapy and amniotic membrane grafts "jump-start" the stalled healing process by releasing growth factors that guide your body back into normal healing.
