Prednisone and Delayed Wound Healing

Direct Impact on Healing: Yes, corticosteroids such as prednisone are well-known to cause delayed wound healing in skin tissue.
Mechanism of Action: Prednisone suppresses the inflammatory response, which is a necessary initial phase for proper tissue repair and cellular regeneration.
Suppression of Collagen: Corticosteroids inhibit fibroblast proliferation and reduce collagen synthesis, which are critical for skin strength and structural integrity during the healing process.
Immune System Effects: By dampening immune function, prednisone also increases the susceptibility of the wound to secondary infections, further complicating recovery.
