Peripheral artery disease: Arterial hardening and narrowing causes decreased blood flow in the legs which can starve your tissues of oxygen. Arterial wounds usually occur on the end of toes or between the heels or on the outer ankle.
Chronic venous insufficiency: if veins fail to return blood, pressure builds up preventing tissue from getting the oxygen they need. Swelling, discoloration, leg heaviness and itchiness may precede ulcers or non healing wounds. They usually occur on the around the ankle on the inside.
