Wound care
Wound care involves medical interventions to heal a wound after injury. Specialized treatment is provided for wounds that are nonhealing or refuse to heal on their own. A vital aspect of treatment includes learning how to properly dress and care for a wound.

- Crush injuries
- Necrotizing fasciitis
- Osteomyelitis
- Radiation injuries
