Stop Infection Before It Stops Your Healing

Even a small wound can become serious if an infection sets in. That’s why our team at Wound Care St. Augustine acts fast to identify, manage, and prevent wound infections using advanced tools and trusted medical protocols. From surface-level signs to deep-tissue concerns, we’re here to protect your health and help your body heal without setbacks.

What Is Infection Mitigation?

Infection mitigation is the process of identifying, managing, and preventing infection in a wound to avoid further complications. At Wound Care St. Augustine, we use a combination of diagnostic testing, advanced dressings, and collaboration with infectious disease specialists to deliver fast, targeted treatment.

Wound infections can quickly lead to pain, swelling, delayed healing, or even hospitalization. Our proactive approach helps detect infection early and protect the surrounding tissue — all while keeping you comfortable and informed.

Diagnosing the Problem, Treating It at the Source

When infection is suspected, we don’t guess — we test. Using tools like wound swabs, bloodwork, or even bone sampling, we pinpoint the source and severity of infection to develop the most effective plan of care.

Advanced Diagnostics

We use lab testing and clinical indicators to identify bacterial presence and infection severity.

Infection-Fighting Dressings

Our team applies antimicrobial dressings and wound products designed to kill bacteria and promote healing.

Specialist Collaboration

We work with infectious disease experts when needed to ensure the most effective treatment plan for your condition.

Frequently Asked Questions About Infection Mitigation

Infection can quickly delay healing — but with early intervention, it doesn’t have to. Below are some of the most common questions we receive about preventing and treating wound infections.

What are the signs of a wound infection?
Redness, swelling, warmth, drainage, foul odor, and increased pain can all be signs. If you notice any of these, don’t wait.
Can a wound be infected even if it looks okay?
Yes. Some infections are deep or slow-developing and may not show clear surface symptoms right away.
What types of infections do you treat?
We treat everything from minor surface infections to deeper or systemic issues in collaboration with specialists when needed.
Is infection mitigation covered by insurance?
Yes — most major plans and Medicare cover infection management when part of a medically necessary wound care plan.
