Gangrene: A Really Painful Disease

Gangrene is a condition that occurs when our soft body tissue dies. It is caused by an insufficient blood supply to one or more body parts, injury or infection. Usually toes, fingers and limbs are most common parts which are affected by gangrene but it can also occur inside the human body, damaging internal organs and muscles.

Types of Gangrene

Dry Gangrene: It occurs when the blood flow to a specific area of body get blocked. This type of gangrene specially occurs in toes and fingers and they turn to black due to insufficient supply of oxygen.

Wet Gangrene: This type of gangrene is caused by a bacterial infection with a combination of injury. The infection kills living tissues in that area and turns them to liquid mass. Patients of this disease can face death after the bacterial infection grows inside your blood stream.
Gas Gangrene: Myonecrosis which is also best known as gas gangrene develops deep inside the internal organs of human body and leads to gas production, dead muscle tissues and spreads throughout the body in a very quick time period.
Necrotising Fasciitis: This is also caused by bacterial infection and spreads quickly over the victim’s body.
Internal Gangrene: When blood flow to an internal organ like intestines, appendix or gallbladder get blocked then this type of gangrene appears.

Reasons of Gangrene

Our body transports oxygen, antibodies and all necessary nutrients to all over the body through the blood streams. When the bloodline of a specific organ gets blocked, cell of that place cannot survive and it also allows infection to grow there. The tissues at there can die due to gangrene. Here are some conditions of our body which affects our blood flow –

Atherosclerosis
Regular Smoking
Diabetes
Serious Injury or Trauma
Peripheral Arterial Disease
Raynaud’s phenomenon
Obesity
