The patient has type 2 diabetes mellitus and due to the illness she has developed poor circulation rendering the wound to receive the nutrients it needs to heal thus delaying the healing process. Hyperglycemia leads to osmotic diuresis and subsequent decreased oxygenation and perfusion. High blood glucose causes stiffening of the arteries, narrowing of blood vessels, and diabetic neuropathy, which is nerve damage throughout the body, particularly the limbs.
Increase pain on the wound. Redness around the wound. Warmth around the wound. Necrosis is present. Underlying structures becoming visible (tendon, bones, muscle) Minimal granulation. Inflammation. Large amount of exudate (serous, sanguineous, purulent) Poor wound edges. Erythema on the peri- wound skin. Excoriated peri-wound skin.
