Anyone have experience with larger chronic wounds?

Posted , 3 users are following.

Hello, i have had quite bad wounds in the past that take quite a while to heal back properly (with healthier type of skin) usually they just become complicated and keep healing back with dead tissue. Just asking what ideas you guys have for this besides just cleaning it, making sure its not dry etc.imageimage

    I suggest that you try and keep it as dry as possible, try keeping vaseline on it so that moisture won't touch it.

      I find when i keep the skin dry, it peels off very easily and makes more wounds or an even larger wound.
