Morning doctor.... I am a 27-year-old male, suffering from severe pressure sores since my childhood.... It has been a serious matter of concern these days.... I neither received any treatment for this nor shown this to any physician so far.... Kindly guide me.....
Hello Thank you for posting at HCM. Pressure sores since childhood should be evaluated in detail because the causes can be many and treatment varies accordingly.Hence I would advise you to consult a specialist- surgeon. Even to give you primary guidance I would need details like site of the sores, the healing pattern, associated pain and discharge. So please clarify these points. As first line of management- keep the area clean, avoid continued friction at the site,provide necessary dressings. Hope I have been of help. If you return with the details, we can sort the problem better. Regards Dr.Jayasree P,MD
