Description

Dr. G examines how growth factors act as fertilizers, and how oxygen and light therapies function like sunlight and air to revive chronic diabetic foot ulcers. He explains key molecules (EGF, PDGF, VEGF, FGF, TGF‑β), the problem of growth factor resistance in diabetes, and bedside treatments including PRP, topical/recombinant growth factors, topical and hyperbaric oxygen, and photobiomodulation.


Using clinical anecdotes and a “please grow for me” theme, the episode surveys current approaches and emerging technologies (smart dressings, nanoparticle delivery, adaptive LED devices) for actively cultivating wound healing.
