Sores that do not heal can be a sign of many things. But before we come to any conclusion about your sores, it is important to know various factors such as your age and family history. In order to rule out anything serious or big, you would have to go to your regular physician who would have access to your entire medical history. An examination would also be able to tell you more accurately about what exactly your sores represent. Sometimes, there can be some sores that are simply being re-injured every now and then, and this may be causing them to remain uncured. You may not realize that this is happening. Check to see if this is the case. Sometimes if you leave sores untreated due to reasons such as their general shape and size, they may also not heal by themselves. We do sometimes feel that some sores are too small and insignificant to bother with. This is a dangerous attitude simply because leaving any sore open and untreated can only increase your chances of attracting infections and more problems. If you have been doing this, you would need to stop at once.
In many cases, sores that do not heal can be a harbinger of many other things as well. Low immunity is one of the causes of any kinds of sores or wounds not healing. In order to pick up on your general immunity, you should start taking a regular dosage of Indian gooseberry. This is the most generous source of vitamin C available in nature and will help to boost your immunity to a large extent. This is also easily available in pill or powder form in all stores that sell natural or organic goods. You could also get this from an Indian grocery store. Alternately, you can also take a dose of Echinacea, also available in the same places. This will also help to boost your immunity tremendously. It is also a good idea to undergo a complete physical examination and determine that your low immunity is not related to any big problem. Sometimes, lack of proper healing of all sores and wounds is also an early sign of diabetes. This, however, would depend totally upon your age, family history, whether or not you are a contender for diabetes and other such factors. In any case, it would be wiser to get this checked out early on rather than wait till it becomes a full fledged condition.
