How to treat bedsores?

  Patient: 68-year-old female, paraplegic, with severe decubitus ulcer on the lateral left hip, with a trauma the size of an egg and depth going near the bone. She was treated at Shanghai Second People’s Hospital with no significant effect. Can the Ninth Hospital cure it? I would like to ask Dr. Kui Gang for medical treatment. Thank you very much!  Kui Gang: Decubitus ulcer healing is influenced by systemic and local factors, just like any other wound healing process. Systemic factors include age, nutritional status, functional status of the circulatory system, underlying or concomitant diseases, and medication use. Enhanced nursing care is also required. Then we will consider local medication, which in turn is closely related to local trauma conditions, such as local treatment measures, humidity and temperature, local blood supply status, trauma foreign bodies, trauma infection, etc. The chances of healing of trauma with joint capsule rupture and bone exposure by medication change alone can be said to be extremely low, requiring surgical flap repair. We take non-surgical treatment in the clinic. For consultation, you can come to the hospital during outpatient hours.
