Decubitus ulcers usually get worse in a few months cannot be determined, and they should be treated promptly when discovered.
Decubitus ulcer development can be divided into four periods: stasis and redness, inflammatory infiltration, shallow ulceration, and deep ulceration. If bedsores are not treated in a timely manner, they may progress from the stasis and redness stage to the deep ulcer stage in a month or two, and the disease may progress very quickly.
Decubitus ulcers not only cause skin infections and ulcers, but also cellulitis, bone and joint infections, cancer, sepsis, etc. Patients whose decubitus ulcers progress to the deep ulcer stage in a more serious way may also die. If the condition can be controlled during the stasis and redness stage of the bedsore, the bedsore will not become serious.
Therefore, if you find bedsores on your skin, you need to go to a regular hospital for treatment in time to control the course of bedsores and avoid serious consequences.
