Pressure Sores (Bedsores) – Advanced Wound Care and Surgical Management

Restoring Dignity, Mobility & Skin Integrity
Pressure sores — also called bedsores or pressure ulcers — are painful wounds that develop when prolonged pressure cuts off blood flow to the skin and underlying tissue. They are most common in people who are immobile, elderly, or chronically ill.
At Grandville Medical & Laser, we offer comprehensive management of pressure sores, from early wound care to advanced surgical reconstruction. Our goal is to not just heal the wound, but to prevent recurrence and restore quality of life.

What Causes Pressure Sores?
Pressure sores develop from:
✅ Prolonged pressure over bony areas (e.g., buttocks, heels, back, elbows)
✅ Shear and friction during repositioning
✅ Moisture and poor hygiene
✅ Immobility due to stroke, spinal cord injury, or coma
✅ Malnutrition, diabetes, or vascular disease
⸻
Stages of Pressure Sores
1️⃣ Stage 1 – Red, unbroken skin that doesn’t blanch
2️⃣ Stage 2 – Partial skin loss; blister or shallow ulcer
3️⃣ Stage 3 – Full-thickness skin loss; visible fat or dead tissue
4️⃣ Stage 4 – Deep ulcer with exposed muscle, bone, or tendon
Complications include infection, sepsis, osteomyelitis, and chronic disability if not treated properly.
