Thanks to all for the responses. I will print them out and let her look them
over. She's open to anything that will help. The sugar remedy is very
interesting, and I'm sure she'll try it. Thanks.

About the highest ( estimated ) strength CS I've used is 50ppm. I don't
think sludge is necessary. Wounds that refuse to heal are "a different kind of
animal". I'm not certain if this is an open wound, or how deep it is, but the
key here is to take a soaked dressing, apply it to the entire wound, and keep
it saturated with CS. Especially if it is a deep wound, don't let this
dressing dry!
Alternately, a rather thin cylinderal container that will completely cover
the wound with about 1/6" diameter "left over" can be filled, to the absolute
rim ( this is important ), and applied with light pressure. The idea here, of
course, is to be sure the container itself is not touching any damaged tissue.
It must be filled virtually to the point of overflowing, with no air at all in
the container once it is applied. What one is after here is increased forced
adsorption of the CS. ( hmm 3 inches in diameter? might not be feasible )
For external use, I've always been of the mind that a higher PPM solution
might be more effective. However, somewhere one must reach a balance - one
doesn't want such a strong solution that one is left without ions.
If these wounds are a byproduct of a diabetic condition, or low oxygen
content in the bloodstream, than patience will certainly be called for. It is
also wise to start using the colloidal silver internally as well.
The type, depth of the wound, and the state of the diseased tissue, are
variables that help determine how long a single application should be
sustained. I'm operating almost off of the assumption here that these wounds
are open. A dressing will need to be changed relatively often if the wound
drains. One wants to avoid having the dressing adhere to tissues. This can be
avoided by prompt dressing changes, and keeping the dressing itself moist.
The idea here, at any rate, is that simply spraying colloidal silver every
once in awhile is not likely to do the trick.

Hello, I have a question about commercial CS & need some advice on strength
for a client of mine. She is 79 years old and has infected leg wounds on her
very fragile skin that are just simply not clearing up. Her doctors are doing
all kinds of things, including prescribing antibiotics ( which, of course, wipe
her out) , and I know that CS would clear this up rather quickly. She has had
these 3" open wounds for a month now, so I'm going to butt in and get her some
CS. My question is about strength: I've seen and used some CS by "Innovative'
that is dark brown and claims to be 500 ppm. I bought a small bottle to try it
out and it did indeed clear up the insect bites I applied it to on myself
overnight. Is this a good strength, or is higher ppm unnecessary and a myth?
I hear about you guys doing wonders with 5 ppm and I'd just like to hear some
history of higher ppm use. Thanks. Gage
