What are bedsores and how do they occur?

Bedsores, also known as pressure ulcers or decubitus ulcers, are injuries to the skin and underlying tissue caused by prolonged pressure on the skin. They typically occur when a person remains in one position for an extended period, such as in a hospital bed or wheelchair. Bedsores commonly develop on bony areas of the body like the heels, ankles, hips, and tailbone.
