wound care and diabetic ulcer foot leg care

Lower extremity wounds and ulcers—especially those on the feet and ankles—can quickly become serious if not properly treated. Whether caused by diabetes, poor circulation, or trauma, these wounds require expert attention to prevent complications like infections, ulcers, or even amputation. That’s why seeing a specialized podiatrist like Dr. Shaynah Goldfine in Marietta, GA, is not just important—it can be life-changing.

Dr. Goldfine takes a comprehensive approach to wound care, tailoring treatment plans to each patient’s unique needs. One powerful tool she may use is custom orthotics. These specially designed devices help redistribute pressure on the foot, preventing further breakdown of tissue and promoting a stable environment for healing.

In cases where wounds are more severe or slow to heal, advanced wound grafts can be applied to stimulate tissue regeneration. Dr. Goldfine utilizes state-of-the-art grafting techniques that support the body’s natural healing process while minimizing the risk of infection or scarring.

For wounds that do not respond to conservative treatment, surgical intervention may be necessary. Dr. Goldfine is skilled in performing precise procedures that remove damaged tissue and correct underlying structural problems, helping to jump-start the healing process and prevent recurrence.

Lower extremity wound care is complex and requires specialized knowledge. With Dr. Shaynah Goldfine’s expertise in podiatric medicine, patients receive compassionate, high-quality care that addresses both the symptoms and the root causes of chronic wounds.

Have you or a loved one been struggling with a foot or ankle wound that won’t heal? Don’t wait. Early intervention can make all the difference. Contact Dr. Shaynah Goldfine’s office in Marietta, GA, to schedule a comprehensive evaluation today.
