MOBILE WOUND CARE · TRAUMATIC WOUNDS
In-home traumatic wound care in Denton & Cooke County
Cuts, skin tears, crush injuries, and other traumatic wounds on the lower leg and foot need prompt, expert care to heal cleanly and avoid infection. Dr. David J. Barber, DPM brings a full mobile wound clinic to your home across Denton County and Cooke County.
What are traumatic wounds?
Traumatic wounds are injuries to the skin and underlying tissue caused by an accident or force — rather than by an underlying disease. On the lower leg and foot they’re especially prone to slow healing when circulation, swelling, or other health issues are involved. Common examples include:
- Lacerations and deep cuts
- Skin tears (common in fragile or aging skin)
- Puncture wounds
- Crush and impact injuries
- Abrasions and “road rash”
- Wounds that have reopened or won’t close
Signs your wound needs professional care
Reach out promptly if you notice any of the following:
- A wound that hasn’t started healing within a week or two
- Increasing redness, warmth, swelling, or pain
- Drainage, pus, or a foul odor
- A deep or gaping wound, or one you can’t keep clean
- Any wound on the foot or leg if you have diabetes or poor circulation
How Dr. Barber treats traumatic wounds at home
Dr. Barber brings the tools of an outpatient wound clinic directly to your bedside — so healing can happen where you’re most comfortable:
- Portable X-ray to rule out fractures or bone infection
- Vascular testing (Smart ABI & TCOM) to confirm the wound has the blood flow it needs to heal
- Pain-free ultrasound debridement to clean the wound
- Advanced dressings and infection management
- Topical oxygen therapy for stubborn, slow-healing wounds
- Coordination with your existing home-health team
