Diabetic Ulcer Treatment in Sharjah: Effective Healing & Complete Care

Living with diabetes increases the risk of foot and leg wounds that are slow to heal — known as diabetic ulcers. Without proper care, these ulcers can lead to infections and even amputation.

At Gaelan Hospital in Sharjah, we provide advanced diabetic ulcer treatment backed by professional wound specialists, evidence-based protocols, and a patient-first approach — so you can heal safely and confidently.

 

What Are Diabetic Ulcers?

Diabetic ulcers are open sores that most often occur on the feet, especially under pressure points like the toes or heels. They develop due to:

  • Poor blood circulation
  • Nerve damage (neuropathy)
  • High blood glucose that slows healing

Even minor cuts can turn into serious ulcers if not treated early.

 

Signs You Should Seek Treatment

Seek medical help if you notice:

  • A sore that doesn’t heal within a few days
  • Redness, warmth, or swelling
  • Drainage or bad smell
  • Pain, numbness, or tingling
  • Blackened skin around a wound

Early treatment prevents complications and speeds recovery.

 

How Diabetic Ulcers Are Diagnosed

At Gaelan Hospital, our specialists begin with a thorough evaluation:

  • Medical history & blood glucose check
  • Wound assessment (size, depth, infection signs)
  • Blood flow testing
  • Nerve function evaluation
  • Imaging where needed (ultrasound/X-ray)

This precise diagnosis allows us to craft a tailored plan for each patient.

 

Modern Diabetic Ulcer Treatment Options

We combine the latest wound care science with compassionate clinical care.

  1. Effective Wound Cleaning and Debridement

Removing dead tissue and debris helps the ulcer heal and reduces infection risk.

  1. Infection Control

Antibiotics (topical or oral) are used if signs of infection are present.

  1. Pressure Offloading

Special footwear, casts, or braces relieve pressure on the wound — a key step in healing.

  1. Moisture-Balanced Dressings

Advanced dressings help maintain the right environment for tissue repair.

  1. Blood Sugar Management

Tight glucose control accelerates healing and lowers recurrence risk.

  1. Vascular Support

If circulation is poor, our team works with vascular specialists to improve blood flow.

  1. Patient Education

We teach proper foot care techniques to prevent future ulcers.

 

Why Early Treatment Matters

Delaying care can lead to:

  • Deep infections
  • Bone involvement (osteomyelitis)
  • Amputation risk
  • Hospitalization

Prompt, expert care dramatically improves outcomes.
