Tropical Ulcer

Tropical ulcer (ulcus tropics, syn. jungle ulcer) is a deep inflammation of the skin that occurs as a result of exposure to microorganisms, toxins or other aggressive factors. This is why tropical ulcers can often lead to serious health consequences. In this article we will look at the causes of tropical ulcers and their treatment.

There are a large number of reasons for the occurrence of tropical ulcers and people susceptible to this disease. One of the reasons is constant human contact with aggressive factors on the skin. For example, environmental pollution while working on farms, gardens or construction sites. Other factors that contribute to the appearance of ulcers are insect bites, burns or skin wounds (for example, after a fight or animal attack). Tropical ulcers can also develop through close contact with a sick person.

In addition, ulcers can appear due to poor nutrition, unbalanced food intake and a sedentary lifestyle. A disordered diet and little physical activity are often the causes of health problems, one of which is skin ulcers.
