Arterial Ulcers
Approximately 10 per cent of all leg ulcers are arterial ulcers. Feet and legs often feel cold and may have a whitish or bluish, shiny appearance. Arterial leg ulcers can be painful. Pain often increases when your legs are at rest and elevated.  You can reduce pain by sitting on the edge of the bed with your feet on the floor. Gravity will then cause more blood to flow into your legs. Ulcers are breaks in the layers of the skin that fail to heal. They may be accompanied by inflammation.

Diabetic Ulcers
The long-term effect of diabetes on the nerves increases the likelihood of trauma to the feet. It causes a lack of sensation in the feet, which makes ulcers more likely to appear.  But these ulcers are often neglected because they don't cause pain. If ulcers aren't treated, they can lead to more serious problems. Diabetic ulcers have similar characteristics to arterial ulcers but are more notably located over pressure points such as heels, tips of toes, between toes or anywhere the bones may protrude and rub against bedsheets, socks or shoes.

Venous Ulcers
Venous ulcers are sores that develop after veins in the legs have  been damaged. These ulcers penetrate deep into the skin. Venous ulcers affect approximately 1% of the worlds population.  Venous ulcers have a high  prevalence and are more common in women than in men and are the most frequent causes of lower extremity ulcers. Approximately 70 percent of all leg ulcers are venous ulcers.
