Summary

This pilot study tests whether injecting dexpanthenol (a vitamin B5 derivative) under the skin around chronic wounds can help them heal faster. 40 adults with diabetic foot ulcers, venous leg ulcers, or arterial ulcers will receive either standard wound care alone or standard care plus dexpanthenol injections. The study will measure changes in wound size and skin regrowth over time.
