I have had bone removed twice, Meredith. Just takes forever to get well. Have you ever used a wound vac? It helped me a great deal. Take care and God bless.

Pressure sores should be clean and debreeded and bandaged. Infections, not treated properly can produce more negative effects. Best Wishes In a message dated 2/27/2013 2:40:40 P.M.

Should I get some antibiotics? Can I just continue soaking? Thanks Meredith
