It's definitely skin against cushion. Strange where it is
thought. It's hard to even try to describe where it is. It's more
towards the pelvic area but not a highly boney area. I don't get it.
I'm going to try to find a way to get a roho paid for. Any ideas?

Hi Stacy,
Is the sore in a area where skin touches skin? or is it where skin
touches the cushion? Keeping it dry should help if it's skin
against skin. A ROHO would help if it's skin against the cushion.
I hope you can get it started healing before school starts. Stay
strong.

Hey guys,
I have a pressure sore right on the inside of my thigh at the top. I
had a pressure mapping but no pressure shows there so can't get Medicare to
cover a different cushion. School starts soon and really can't afford to
take off. Has anyone healed a sore while being up between 6-8 hours a
day? Would a roho help? Thanks. I am so sick with myself
over this. I'm trying to stay off of it in my current situation but
it's hard when I live alone.
Thanks guys,
Stacy
