🤕 Living with a non-healing or complex wound? 🤕

👉 One of the most common questions we receive is how to choose the right wound dressing — and why this decision matters.

👉 At Ad Integrum Vascular & Wound Care, we draw on specialist clinical expertise and close collaboration with industry partners to select wound dressings tailored to your wound type, location, and daily life.

👉 Our approach is always person-centred, considering both wound characteristics and individual needs, guided by the best available clinical evidence.

👉 Effective wound healing is often supported by a carefully balanced environment — managing exudate so the wound is neither too wet nor too dry.

👉 Achieving this balance begins with a comprehensive, holistic assessment, allowing us to explore all appropriate treatment options together.

👉 Successful wound care relies on strong foundations: accurate assessment, appropriate cleansing and dressing selection, and consistent follow-up.

👉 If you are living with a wound that is slow to heal and are seeking an initial consultation or a second opinion, we are here to support you.

👉 We offer both video consultations and face-to-face appointments, typically within two weeks of referral.

👉 Our wound care service is led by Consultant Tissue Viability Nurse Dr. Jemell Geraghty and Vascular Consultant Mr. Lukla Biasi.

👉 Our aim is to help you feel informed, supported, and confident throughout your care.

👉 If you need expert guidance for a persistent wound, you can find out more and arrange an appointment via our website.

A leg wound that has not healed within two weeks should not be ignored. Delayed healing is often a sign that there may be an underlying issue affecting circulation, skin health, or the body’s ability to repair itself.

⏳ Wounds lasting more than 2 weeks may indicate venous or arterial disease

🩸 Poor circulation can limit oxygen and nutrient delivery to the skin

🦠 Untreated wounds carry a higher risk of infection and complications

🩺 Early assessment helps identify the cause and guide effective treatment

Timely vascular and wound assessment allows the underlying cause to be addressed, supporting safer healing and reducing the risk of recurrence or deterioration.

Varicose veins are veins that have become enlarged and visibly twisted beneath the skin. This occurs when the valves inside the veins no longer function effectively, allowing blood to flow backwards and collect within the vein, leading to increased pressure in the venous system.

Over time, varicose veins may result in:

• Persistent leg swelling

• Skin changes, including discolouration and venous eczema

• A higher risk of venous leg ulcer development

• Episodes of bleeding or painful vein inflammation (phlebitis)

🚨 Risk Factors for Developing Varicose Veins Include:

❓A family history of venous disease

❓Previous leg injuries or fractures

❓A history of deep vein thrombosis (post-thrombotic changes)

❓Increasing age, particularly during or after pregnancy

❓Long periods of standing, reduced activity levels, or excess body weight

❓Reduced ankle movement or weakened calf muscles

👨‍⚕️ At Ad Integrum Vascular and Wound Care, led by Consultant Vascular Surgeon Mr Lukla Biasi, we provide thorough vascular assessments and tailored treatment plans designed around your individual needs.

🌐 Appointments are available both in person and virtually, with consultations typically offered within two weeks of referral. We welcome self-referrals, and our experienced medical secretaries are available to support you throughout the process.

PAD can present with a range of symptoms that reflect reduced blood flow to the legs.

🟥 Intermittent claudication – cramp-like pain in the leg muscles that occurs after walking a certain distance and eases with rest.

🟥 Rest pain – persistent, severe leg pain that may disturb sleep and is often worse at night; some people find temporary relief by lowering the leg.

🟥 Leg ulceration – non-healing arterial ulcers caused by poor circulation, which may become infected and progress if left untreated.

⚠️ If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, or have concerns about the circulation in your legs, a timely vascular assessment is recommended.

📞 Our medical secretaries are available to guide you through the referral process and help arrange your appointment, usually within two weeks of referral.

Leg heaviness that worsens as the day goes on is a common symptom of venous insufficiency. When the veins are not working effectively, blood can pool in the lower limbs, leading to increased pressure and discomfort.

🕒 Heaviness that builds through the day and improves with rest or elevation

🦵 Aching or tired legs after prolonged standing or sitting

🧦 Swelling around the ankles by evening

🎨 Skin changes that may develop over time if untreated

Early assessment helps identify venous hypertension and guide appropriate management to reduce symptoms and prevent progression.

Venous oedema refers to persistent swelling of the ankles or legs that occurs when the veins are unable to return blood efficiently back to the heart. This leads to fluid build-up in the lower limbs, often worsening as the day goes on.

You may notice:

✅ Ankle or leg swelling that increases by evening

✅ Tightness or heaviness in the legs

✅ Sock or shoe marks on the skin

✅ Swelling that improves with leg elevation

If left unmanaged, venous oedema can increase the risk of skin changes, discomfort, and venous leg ulceration. Identifying the underlying venous cause allows appropriate management, including lifestyle measures, compression therapy, and further treatment where indicated.

If swelling is persistent or worsening, a vascular assessment can help guide appropriate care.

Doppler testing is a simple, non-invasive examination used to assess blood flow in the arteries of the legs. It helps clinicians understand how well blood is reaching the muscles and skin.

This test can:

✅ Identify reduced or uneven blood flow

✅ Support the diagnosis of Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD)

✅ Guide further investigations or treatment decisions

✅ Monitor changes in circulation over time

Doppler testing is quick, painless, and often performed as part of a comprehensive vascular assessment. The results help ensure that management is tailored to your individual circulation needs.

If you are experiencing leg pain when walking, rest pain, or slow-healing wounds, Doppler testing can provide valuable insight.

For people living with diabetes, small cuts, blisters, or cracks in the skin can become serious more quickly than expected. Reduced sensation, slower healing, and impaired immune response may allow wounds to worsen before they are noticed.

Diabetic foot ulcers often develop when:

✅Minor injuries go unnoticed due to neuropathy

✅Blood flow to the foot is reduced

✅Healing is delayed, increasing infection risk

Early assessment and appropriate care are essential to prevent complications.

Regular foot checks and prompt review of any skin change can make a significant difference in outcomes.

If you notice a wound that is not improving, specialist diabetic foot assessment is recommended.

Certain leg symptoms require urgent vascular assessment. Sudden changes can indicate acute ischaemia, where blood flow to the limb is significantly reduced or blocked.

Seek urgent review if you notice:

✅Sudden coldness in the leg or foot
✅Pale, blue, or mottled colour changes
✅Severe or rapidly worsening pain
✅Numbness or weakness

Acute ischaemia can progress quickly and may lead to serious complications if not treated promptly. Early diagnosis and timely intervention are essential to protect limb function and overall health.

If you or someone you care for experiences these symptoms, urgent vascular assessment is advised.

Elevating your legs is a simple way to support circulation, particularly if you experience swelling or heaviness after long periods of sitting or standing.

By resting your legs against a wall for a few minutes:

✅ Gravity helps blood flow back toward the heart

✅ Fluid build-up in the ankles and lower legs may reduce

✅ Legs can feel lighter and more comfortable

This technique can be helpful as part of daily leg care, especially for people with venous insufficiency or those prone to swelling. Elevation should be comfortable and gentle — stop if you experience pain or discomfort.

If swelling is persistent or worsening, a vascular assessment can help identify the underlying cause and guide appropriate treatment.

Not all cleansing solutions are suitable for wound care. While it may seem helpful to use strong or harsh products, these can irritate healthy tissue, delay healing, and increase discomfort.

Gentle wound cleansing aims to:

✅Remove debris and bacteria without harming healthy tissue

✅Protect fragile skin surrounding the wound

✅Maintain an environment that supports healing

✅Improve comfort during wound care

Choosing the appropriate cleansing method depends on the wound type, location, and individual needs. A tailored approach ensures the wound is cleaned effectively while preserving the skin’s natural healing ability.

If you’re unsure whether your wound care routine is supporting healing, a specialist assessment can help guide the most appropriate care plan.

Diabetic foot ulcers can progress quickly due to a combination of factors that affect the body’s ability to protect and repair the skin.

In diabetes:

✅Skin and soft tissues become more fragile, making them prone to breakdown

✅The immune response may be impaired, reducing the body’s ability to fight infection

✅Healing is often slower, allowing wounds to enlarge or deepen

Because of this, even small breaks in the skin can spread rapidly and become infected if not identified and managed early. Regular foot checks and timely specialist assessment are essential to reduce the risk of serious complications.

If you notice any wound, redness, or skin change on your foot, early review can make a significant difference.
