Bed sores, also known as pressure ulcers or decubitus ulcers, are injuries to the skin and underlying tissues caused by prolonged pressure on specific areas of the body, such as the back, hips, heels, or buttocks. These wounds are especially common in patients with limited mobility, such as those who are bedridden or use a wheelchair. When left untreated, bed sores can progress to severe infections, tissue damage, and even life-threatening complications.

Dr. Sushil Nahar, an expert plastic surgeon, specializes in advanced bed sore management to address these challenging wounds effectively. Bed sore management involves comprehensive evaluation, wound cleaning, infection control, and advanced surgical techniques to promote healing and restore function.

For complex or non-healing bed sores, surgical interventions such as debridement, skin grafting, or flap reconstruction may be required. Dr. Sushil Nahar uses these techniques to remove damaged tissue, enhance blood flow, and cover exposed areas with healthy tissue, ensuring faster recovery and minimal scarring.
