Hello Anyumba,

Sorry to read about your 2 year old pressure ulcer. There is a new product manufactured by Oculus, Inc. that would probably help you and is named XuSorb Foam. You can read about it here: www.oculusis.com I haven't tried it as I use Microcyn Spray (same manufacturer) for any pressure ulcers I may develop. I hope this is available in your country as this is a new company.

Good luck.

I had wound on my angle bone and it is healed after a year an half! My nurse suggested Medihoey. This stuff is great! It's just a suggesting!
