You think you're being careful with your wound, but one wrong step could set your healing back weeks.
Getting around Baltimore with a wound isn't just about moving slower.
Most people focus on protecting the wound, but ignore the everyday risks that keep reopening it, increasing pressure, and delaying healing.
The old approach is to push through the pain and hope for the best while the smarter approach is to protect your mobility while protecting your healing.
Here's what you need to know before your next trip across town...
If you have a foot or leg wound:
✔ Consider door-to-door transportation services when needed
✔ Watch for uneven pavement and trip hazards
✔ Avoid crowded areas where your foot could be bumped or stepped on
✔ Take breaks to reduce pressure and swelling
✔ Follow your provider's mobility recommendations
Healing doesn't mean stopping your life, but it does mean moving smarter.
