Hello
Welcome to HCM
Bed sores are best prevented than treated .
Try to keep the area dry and open.apply only spirit or antiseptic onthe wound.apply powder on the rest of of the areas. Diaper rash too heals faster if kept of open.you can apply any cream like siloderm for faster healing.
Prevent sores byfrequent change in posture and frequent dusting with powder.
Thanks
