What to do if i have two non healing ulcers on my leg, could that indicate cancer of some sort?

Neeed for medical-ex: You need a medical examination by a physician. Non healing Ulcers can be caused by poor circulation or neuropathies. So you need to get checked for diabetes and for varicose veins and vascular insufficiency which will require a compelte medical examination
