Her bone there protrudes some so I guess that is what really made that area more susceptible to getting a sore. What should I be putting on it to get it healed quickly? Tracey L.

In a specific SCI-focused, double-blind study, Dr. C. A. Salzberg et al (Valhalla, NY) showed that the pressure sores of Diapulse-treated patients with SCI healed on average in 13 compared to 31.5 days for controls (Wounds 7(1), 1995). Akua seeker --
