Hi, I am not diabetic but have had foot ulcers in past, cleared up by wound care with silver ion infused dressing. I have some dressing material left and have a small area I don’t want to get wors. Wound care told me I could go ahead and use these at beginning to prevent another ulcer. I’m an r.n. Also I have SLE and am 12 week’s post op complete lumbar spinal fusion, so essential I get back on my feet as soon as possible.
