Why? Because just one puff of a cigarette can further restrict much needed oxygen and blood traveling to the place of injury. We all tend to associate cigarettes with lung disease, but did you know that smoking affects every cell in your body? Even one cigarette limits oxygen flow throughout the body.<\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"\" class=\"brz-css-sy7Uj brz-wrapper\"><div class=\"brz-rich-text brz-rich-text__custom brz-css-smg_a\" data-brz-custom-id=\"eooedgchgndczrqxucozbedbhhzsbaidbzhr\"><div data-brz-translate-text=\"1\"><p class=\"brz-tp-lg-paragraph brz-css-vefW8\" tabindex=\"-1\" data-generated-css=\"brz-css-bkqhf\" data-uniq-id=\"qxlgb\"><span class=\"brz-cp-color2\">One of our Nurse Practitioners here at the Wound Care Clinic can often be heard telling patients, \u201cWhen you are smoking a cigarette, it\u2019s just like you are putting it right in your wound.\u201d What a visual!<\/span><\/p><p tabindex=\"-1\" data-generated-css=\"brz-css-bkqhf\" data-uniq-id=\"qxlgb\"><strong class=\"brz-cp-color2\" style=\"font-size: 1rem; letter-spacing: 0.02em;\">What Your Body Needs to Heal<\/strong><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"\" class=\"brz-css-sy7Uj brz-wrapper\"><div class=\"brz-rich-text brz-rich-text__custom brz-css-smg_a\" data-brz-custom-id=\"lahwbdgraeqxnjeopewasogthjlewiecgisc\"><div data-brz-translate-text=\"1\"><p><span style=\"font-size: 1rem; letter-spacing: 0.02em;\">Oxygen is the basis for wound healing and it all begins at the cellular level; smoking deprives the body of the much-needed oxygen required to repair and build cells.
