Leg ulcers are caused by minor leg injuries in which the skin breaks, allowing air or bacteria to enter the underlying tissues. Typically, this injury heals on its own in a week or two, but occasionally, the skin does not heal, and ulcers form, which can be quite painful. They are not only ugly and make you feel self-conscious, but they might also be a symptom of a more serious underlying medical condition.

But worry not – as certain treatments and home remedies can help heal leg ulcers. Here, we’ve included a list of natural home remedies that can help you treat leg ulcers effectively. Keep reading.

What Are Leg Ulcers?

Leg ulcers are sores that develop on broken or injured skin. Usually, they are more prominent right above the ankles, on the inner side of your legs.

Other than skin injuries, leg ulcers may also develop as a result of an underlying medical condition. The diseases which may lead to the development of leg ulcers are discussed briefly below.

What Causes Leg Ulcers?

Some of the most common diseases that lead to the formation of ulcers on your legs include:

  • Venous Disease: This is one of the most common underlying causes of leg ulcers. It accounts for about 80% of cases of ulcers in the leg. Venous disease is usually a result of faulty valves in the veins. When the veins fail to push blood towards the heart, it flows back into the legs, eventually causing ulcers.
  • Arterial Disease: Another disease that triggers leg ulcers is arterial disease. This accounts for 15% of leg ulcers and is a result of blocked arteries in the leg that inhibits blood flow to the underlying tissues.
  • Other Medical Conditions: Leg ulcers can also be formed due to medical conditions like diabetes or rheumatoid arthritisi  XA chronic autoimmune disorder of joints, mainly hands and feet, where the joint swells up as the immune system attacks its tissues. .

So, how do you know if you have developed leg ulcers? Look out for the signs and symptoms mentioned below.

protip_icon Quick Tip
Venous leg ulcer occurs on the gaiter area between the ankle and calf while the arterial leg ulcer occurs on the lower leg area with clearly defined, deeper, and rounded border.

Signs And Symptoms Of Leg Ulcers

The most common symptoms that accompany leg ulcers are as follows:

  • Swelling of the ankles
  • A swollen and enlarged vein in either of your legs
  • Heaviness in the leg
  • The leg begins to ache if you stand for long periods
  • Discoloration on the leg
  • Irritated or flaky skin

It is always better to try and heal leg ulcers as soon as you can to prevent further complications. For that, you need to diagnose them first. The following are a few most common techniques used to diagnose leg ulcers.

How Are Leg Ulcers Diagnosed?

  • A physical examination is the most common way to diagnose it.
  • A doppler machine can also be used to diagnose leg ulcers based on the blood supply to your legs.
  • In some cases, your doctor may refer you to a vascular specialist if he is not able to confirm your condition.

These remedies are the safest options to treat leg ulcers. You can also take some precautions to avoid developing these ulcers again. They are as discussed below.

Preventive Tips

  • Keep a check on your weight
  • Keep your legs elevated every now and then
  • Wear compression stockings or keep bandages wrapped around them at all times, except while sleeping
  • Avoid standing or sitting at a stretch
  • Indulge in gentle exercises and walk daily. Dr. Anna Chacon, MD, FAAD, a double board-certified dermatologist, adds, “Venous leg ulcers and edema might become worse when you sit or stand motionless without elevating your legs. Always keep the injured leg raised whether you’re sitting or lying down, and consider walking frequently to stay active.”
  • Keep a check on your blood sugar levels as leg ulcers can also be caused by diabetes

Following these basic tips will prove beneficial for you in the long run. Leg ulcers can turn quite hideous and severe if left untreated. Hence, it is important to treat them on time to avoid complications. Given below are a few side effects that may arise when leg ulcers do not heal.

Side Effects Of Leg Ulcers

  • Fever
  • Unbearable pain
  • A green and foul-smelling discharge from the ulcers
  • The skin around the ulcers begins to swell
  • The sores become bigger
  • Inflamed skin around the ulcers

If the remedies mentioned above fail, consult a doctor immediately. They may prescribe one or a combination of the treatments mentioned below to treat your leg ulcers.

Medical Treatment Options For Leg Ulcers

  • Antibiotics: Doctors may prescribe oral antibiotics if a bacterial infection causes your leg ulcers (36).
  • Zinc Supplements: Zinc may be effective in healing leg ulcer wounds, as it helps in wound healing by fixing cell membranes, reducing inflammation, and forming new blood vessels and scar tissue (37).
  • Skin Graft: Skin grafting may help heal chronic and larger leg ulcers. In this process, a skin graft (from another body part) is attached to the healthy skin around the wound (38).
  • Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy: It involves breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber. This may help heal chronic venous leg ulcers by increasing oxygen levels in the bloodstream and promoting tissue repair (39).

Leg ulcers resemble sores that develop when bacteria enter underlying tissues through injured or broken skin. While skin injuries are the most common risk factor for leg ulcers, certain underlying medical conditions like diabetes, arterial disease, and venous disease may also lead to leg ulcers. Some common signs and symptoms that often accompany leg ulcers include irritated or flaky skin, swelling, heaviness, discoloration, and leg pain on prolonged standing. You may use natural ingredients like Gotu kola, turmeric, aloe vera, coconut oil, tea tree oil, and yarrow in home remedies to heal leg ulcers in mild to moderate cases.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should you put Neosporin on a leg ulcer?

According to Dr. Chacon. “Antibiotics used locally, such as Neosporin, might worsen an ulcer by causing a local allergy.”

What vitamin is good for leg ulcers?

Dr. Chacon says, “Leg ulcers caused by venous blood flow are long-lasting lesions that need a sufficient amount of nutrients to heal. The healing response may be sped up by vitamin C, which is essential to the dynamics of wound healing.”

Why is my leg ulcer not healing?

If your leg ulcer is not healing, it is highly recommended that you consult your doctor to identify the cause. Non-healing leg ulcers are usually a sign of an underlying disease, which may need immediate medical attention and treatment.

Why do leg ulcers keep coming back?

If your leg ulcers keep coming back, it means that they have turned chronic and there is some other underlying medical condition (like a venous disease) causing it. Venous leg ulcers become chronic and non-healing due to chronic inflammation. This happens when your venous system is unable to pump blood back to the heart.

What is the best cream for leg ulcers?

Creams and gels made with natural ingredients are safe and effective options to treat leg ulcers. You can use topical formulations made of components from herbs like yarrow and aloe vera to treat leg ulcers.

What is the best dressing for a weeping leg ulcer?

You can use honey-impregnated or hydrogel dressings to keep the wound moist and disinfected (40).

Can you put peroxide on a leg ulcer?

Currently, there is insufficient evidence that suggests that peroxide can heal a leg ulcer. Consult a doctor before trying this remedy.

Key Takeaways

  • Leg ulcers develop on injured, broken skin and are generally triggered due to venous or arterial blockages or other medical conditions.
  • Ulcers can cause swelling, pain in legs upon standing for a long time and can make the skin flaky and scaly.
  • Massaging the affected area with natural ingredients like coconut oil, honey, turmeric, or aloe vera can soothe the skin as they have antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties.
