Question: what is it?


Answers: what is it?

Ulcers are healing wounds that develop on the skin, mucous membranes or eye. Although they have many causes, they are marked by:

1. Loss of integrity of the area
2. Secondary infection of the site by bacteria, fungus or virus
3. Generalized weakness of the patient
4. Delayed healing

Ulcer comes from the latin words ulcus, ulceris meaning sore or painful spot.
