Non healing wound is a common problem encountered by plastic surgeon. There are various causes due to which the wound becomes none healing. There are various causes for delay in wound healing like persistence of infection,presence of foreign body,lack of moisture,lack of growth factors,lack of aseptic environment etc. .
