causes of slow healing
The Causes of Wounds Healing Slowly. All wounds heal in three stages. First, the wound becomes inflamed as an immune response to prevent infections. Second, new cellsâbetter known as a scabâform over the wound. And finally scar tissue forms, healing the wound. While cuts with even edges tend to heal quicker and better than cuts than rough edges, disease and nutritional deficits can cause the healing process to slow in both types of wounds.
