I had a similar wound. At one point, it was about the size of a baseball. It took about a year to close up. Have you tried a wound vac or e-stim (electronic muscular stimulation to encourage blood flow)?
Initially, I had been spending four hours on my back, and four hours turned one way, and four hours turned the other way. I changed my turning schedule so that I would spend two hours on one side and two hours on the other side, and I think this helped. Also, I tried to consume as much protein as possible. Good luck, Dave Krehbiel From: Larry Willis [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Sunday, April 22, 2012 4:42 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [QUAD-L] Pressure sore I have a pressure sore on my tailbone that has been the bane of my existence for years now. It is not deep and has never been seriously infected. However, I have been fighting it for over six years! I have some feeling in that spot and sometimes it feels like a red hot branding iron. Bad! It is about 4in by 4 in. In the last several days it has begun to bleed profusely. I don't know whether this is good, bad, or irrelevant, but it is a first. Any of my buds here got any knowledge to share about it? Thanks. Larry Willis I use a Roho cushion. Sent from my iPad
