    open sores on skin that don't heal properly

    Skin ulcers, also known as cutaneous ulcers or dermal ulcers, are open sores on the skin that fail to heal properly and can become chronic. They often result from poor blood circulation, prolonged pressure, or underlying medical conditions such as diabetes or vascular diseases. These ulcers can be painful, prone to infection, and may require medical intervention to promote healing and prevent complications.
