injuries that don't heal within a typical 3-month period

Chronic wounds, also known as non-healing or persistent wounds, are injuries to the skin that fail to progress through the normal stages of healing within a predictable timeframe, typically around 3 months. These wounds can result from various underlying conditions such as diabetes, poor circulation, or prolonged pressure, and often require specialized medical treatment to promote healing and prevent complications like infection.
