At Home Care for Your Pressure Injuries

To learn more about pressure injuries, please visit cle.clinic/2RL1XCI
A pressure injury (also called a bedsore, pressure ulcer, pressure sore, or decubitus ulcer) is an area of injured skin. Here are some ways to prevent pressure injuries from occurring while you are at home.

I know Christopher Reeve's sotry He broke his spine, ended up in the hospital, and then the pressure sores resulted. One of those sores caused either necrotizing fasciitis or septicemia, which then turned to sepsis, and then TSS, which eventually caused Christopher's death.
So bedsores are something you cannot joke at all with! They need to be taken care of!!!

Which ointment to prevent bed sores

[@joelg222]

Try Calmoseptine. It’s very good to prevent bed sores. It’s what I use.

[@punithasiva199]

Try proskin brand - zink cream

Medi-honey seems to work pretty well for my Dad!!
