Hello! Madam .. I am suffering from pressure sore for years ... I have heard about Hydro heal silver colloidal gel and seen your video on Intrasite gel.. the first one is not available in Bangladesh as my family and others checked .As a physically disabled patient of lumber mylomeningocele its not possible check myself ..Is Intrasite gel available in Bangladesh? PLEASE let me know if there is any other faster way to heal the sore besides poster change. I tried for a year but .. it didn't heal sooner. I got pressure sores many times earlier , but they healed . THIS TIME IS TAKING FOREVER.REPLY SOON PLEASE.

Unfortunately with Pressure ulcers you will not get it healed if you are not fixing the issue ( removing/ redistributing pressure) . The wound it's self will start healing once moisture is managed and pressure removed.. is it a completely dry wound? As you would not use intrasite gel unless it's extreamily dry and you are trying to add moisture.

Hi Nurse Alyssa! I am using wheelchair because paralyzed from SCI T6 - T8. At first, I have pressure wound with a small cut initially. I go to the woundcare clinic. They applied Hydrogel. However, my wound is ingrained after that. They changed to use Mesalt into deep wound. The ingrained is more deeply. My wound is from moderate to heavy exudate. I have go to the clinic every 2 weeks. I'm suffer because my wound's worse than before. What should I do because I've seen them for 11 months?

Hello Truc, I am sorry you are going through this..here are my personal suggestions below. Given the data I have been provided. 1) please ensure you are using a pressure redistributing device (ei: roho) 2) move positions every 2 hrs 3) if you can complete avoid putting any pressure on the location ( with wounds you need to remove the causing factor to heal, if pressure is constant then the wound will continue to get bigger. 4) if they are packing the wound where pressure is.. this can be difficult as the packing can also cause pressure if you are using too much .. so a very light fluff into the wound is all that is needed. 5) mesalt acts as a debridement for wounds.. if the wound is pink or red this is not a product that should be used as it will make the wound larger .. this product is for debridement and should only be used until the wound bed is clean.

@@NurseAlyssa39 Thank you for your reply! I'm trying to avoid pressure as much as possible. I am currently using a Hybrid ROHO cushion. My wound actually has tunnels about 3 cm. Which product should I use to manage moisture? I feel tired to go to that clinic because they keep switching between iodoform and mesalt only.

Unfortunately this is going to be an extremely slow heal. Keep moving positions every 2 hrs. Is there signs of a deeper infection or suspected biofilm (possible need for antibiotics) as you said its getting larger so either pressure or infection is doing this. There is no magic wound products that will close this wound , as long as infection is being managed, it's not to wet and not too dry, the wound is very lightly packed . Then it should heal. Keep pressure off as much as possible. When sleeping at night keepnpressure off the area.
