Pressure ulcers are extremely painful and are generally caused by constant pressure on the same area (primarily the buttocks and heels). Prevention is essential because treatment becomes very difficult once the condition has developed.

In the early stages of pressure ulcers, the skin reddens before lesions appear, which can be deep. These lesions can also become infected.

The best way to prevent pressure ulcers is to relieve pressure on the body by changing position and using appropriate support devices. These devices can contain various materials, such as air or water. Malnutrition and fragile skin make older people more susceptible to developing pressure ulcers.
