How long is the typical healing time for a pressure sore? - Mary Zeigler, MS

The stage one and stage two, if you’re fortunate enough to get to the wound before it progresses any further, with total relief of pressure, good nutrition, and other healthy lifestyle behaviors, can resolve in a matter of days to a few weeks.  If a full thickness, or a stage three, or stage four, or unstageable, or suspected deep –issue-injury has occurred, it can be any where from weeks, to months, to years for healing to take place.  All depends on the individual patient.
