Dave,   Thanks for this info.! Do you use a dressing w/it?   -Mare ----- Original Message ----- From: David K.

Jar, on my skin to keep my butt-skin from braking down.  Rub it on the areas that get red or on any non-infected wounds.          http://www.surgicalsupplyservice.com/Product-List/Product.asp?Leaf_Id=030302#   I wish you well.  With Love, CtrlAltDel aka Dave C4/5 Complete - 29 Years Post Texas, USA Danny Hearn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:       Hi, all- I have a question, I hav! e never had pressure sores except for my intensive care stay at the hospital 8 1/2 years ago when I was 1st injured. My wife told me today I have a red spot near tailbone area......I know to do pressure reliefs more often to help but what else should I do ?   should I have betadine applied to the area ?  I know this subject has come up in past but I can't remember and do not know how to search archives.                          Thanks, Dan c-6  8 1/2 post  car wreck
