Abstract:
Foot wounds are frequent and not usually serious. The first caregiver to provide treatment must decide on the most appropriate action to take, sometimes in inadequate places. We present an analysis of the management of these traumas to highlight the key stages of the evaluation and initial treatment of the wound while placing the patient on a coherent and efficient clinical pathway.
