My husband had osteomylitis in his left leg bone and had surgery on it, however now the surgery site will not heal and close. 33 years ago he had a motor bike accident and the leg was crushed, leaving lower circulation in the leg due to losing 2 arteries and only having one main artery left.  We have tried for 2 years to heal the entery point that they produced to treat the osteopmylitis, however as i said before will not heal and now they are suggesting amputation of the lower left leg. We have tried everything possible to get this wound to close. So far nothing has worked. What do you think about this?
Hi, It seems that there might be having sequestrum is formed on old osteomyelitis site not allowing to heal local site. He might require removal of sequestrum which might allow healing. If there is no proper blood circulation, he might require amputation. Consult orthopedic surgeon and discuss this. Ok and take care.
