New Coronavirus patients with complicated skin ulcers need to identify the cause of the skin ulcers, such as diabetes, bedsores, infections, and blocked blood vessels, and give targeted treatments such as glycemic control, surgery, anti-infections, and improvement of local blood supply.
Neocoronavirus does not directly cause damage to the skin of the infected person, nor does it cause skin ulcers. When skin ulceration occurs in patients with New Coronavirus, it may be due to poor glycemic control of diabetes mellitus, formation of bedsores after prolonged bed rest, localized infection of the skin by pathogenic bacteria, or blockage of blood vessels leading to poor localized blood flow.
To address the possible causes, treatment should be tailored to the cause of the disease. Diabetes mellitus requires active control of the infected person’s blood glucose and a diabetic diet; bedsores require active turning, and if necessary, debridement, skin grafting and other treatments; local skin infections with pathogenic bacteria require active anti-infective treatment; and vascular occlusion resulting in poor local blood flow can be unblocked to improve blood flow.
