Recently, my 89 year old neighbour lady had a severe fall in which a flap of skin approx. 2” x 5” was peeled back off her shin.The Dermatologist specialist said a skin graft would normally be the procedure ,but, in her case, being 89+, this was too risky.He ,instead, used a silver impregnated bandage to dress it.This bandage had to be replaced every day.After a few days the Dr. was very pleased as the wound was healing beautifully.Needless to say,both she and her husband were pleased too.
Glad to know some of them are getting the message. Harold
