Could you have a chat with your District Nurse team? They tend to have more to do with pressure sores and how to treat them. Do you use an air mattress - some products can be rented or provided through your GP practice.

Which cream did doctor give you? Then we know what NOT to suggest!

Is the skin broken? Daktacort can exacerbate a problem. Which parts are affected?

Have you used gel dressings? A simple high grade moisture cream such as Epaderm?

Not what you're looking for?
