Poor Wound Healing
Coronary artery disease limits the amount of blood flow to the heart. It can also lead to other conditions such as peripheral arterial disease. With this condition, oxygen-rich blood isn't reaching cells throughout the body.
This may mean the cells no longer get the nutrients they need, which may result in slower wound healing. To prevent this, medical professionals recommend maintaining a healthy lifestyle, managing stress and consulting a doctor for regular screenings.10‘How Heart Health Impacts Wound Healing.’ Franciscan Health, 30 Aug. 2018, www.franciscanhealth.org/community/blog/how-heart-health-impacts-wound-healing
