Brief Answer:
No harms from glycerine

Detailed Answer:
Dear sir, I have gone through your question and I understand your concerns .. glycerine is safe to use and beneficial to use over your sores as it acts as an insulator that allows a better healing.. I would recommend that you also apply an antibiotic ointement three times daily to avoid infection of the sores ..
on the other hand , I would like too to give a better explanation of your symptoms, wether you are unable to stand or lack the desire to do so .. whether you have stomach pain when you eat , if you experience any vomiting or diarrhea or you just don't want to eat.. kind regards
