When a Simple Redness Became a Serious Wound
Ellie never expected a small red spot on her leg to turn into a serious health issue. At first, she thought it was nothing—but the pain worsened. A trip to the ER led to a misdiagnosis of gout, and she was sent home with painkillers. Unfortunately, her condition didn’t improve. Her leg continued to swell, and the redness spread.
With her mobility decreasing, Ellie knew she needed real answers. That’s when her home health nurse recommended our mobile advanced wound care.
