My MIL used to live with us, she had very poor circulation and wound healing 
ability.  She fell and had a bad wound at age 101 from scraping against the 
hook on a coat hanger that also fell, and it took 6 weeks or more for it to 
heal.  She was going to a wound clinic at the hospital and  they were willing 
to use silver dressing on her wound, it is called Aquasol Ag by Convatec.  It 
is my impression it is silver in some kind of kelp-based sheet, like agar-agar, 
so when it gets wet from the wound seepage it swells.  It did tend to kind of 
stick to the wound.   I just googled it and it is for sale on Amazon and 
elsewhere.  It did slowly heal her wound.  I guess I would consider it overkill 
for a healthy person or small wound.

.  Silver bandages have been used for years now by the US armed forces
in their field dressings. I have band-aids in the cupboard that say they
are silver-impregnated.
