🚨 Diabetic wounds aren’t all the same.
“Dry” = poor healing but no infection.
“Wet” = infected, pus-filled, dangerous.

If your scrape turns into a pus-filled wound ➝ that’s a red flag. Don’t wait. Get it checked immediately.

At Northern Heart Hospital Penang, our vascular and wound care team provides advanced diabetic foot management with compassion and precision. Early treatment makes all the difference.
