Re: [QUAD-L] get pressure sore well

[Chet Smith]

  I have had a bad pressure sore one time and it became a open

 wound because I did not want to stay in bed to let it heal up.

 Well it got so much worse that it took six weeks for it to

 finally heal completely and if it weren't for using the Bag Balm

 10 days in to trying to get it to close up. Other words I had

 someone putting Iodine 10% for the first 10 days and nothing

 was changing of it till I started with the Bag Balm. Still

 took six weeks in all before I could sit in my chair again.

Hey Chet,

Can you use the bag balm right in a open wound?

   Hello Stacy,

  Is where you're having to sit on it because if that's the case you may have to

 sacrifice a few day's and stay completely off of it to get it well, plus use Bag

 Balm on your pressure sore to speed up the healing process. You can get

 the Bag Balm at any feed and seed store most of the time. Hope it gets better

 for you and then stays away.

  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
