Detailed explanation-1: -Stress-induced glucocorticoid production has been associated with delayed wound healing. In humans, greater awakening cortisol secretion the day following a punch biopsy was associated with greater perceived stress and delayed wound healing [10].
Detailed explanation-2: -Stress has been shown to have a negative impact on wound healing. Although both the direct and indirect mechanisms of stress may be responsible for slowed healing, the most prominent impact is through the effects of stress on cellular immunity.
Detailed explanation-3: -Infection. The most common cause of delayed healing in chronic wounds is infection. Microbial contamination of wounds can progress to colonization, to localized infection, through to systemic infection, sepsis, multi-organ dysfunction, and subsequent life-and limb-threatening infection.
