Bed sores treatment

Asked for Female, 82 Years

Needed advice on best treatment for bed sores. What ointment, what solution,what swab, etc. Needed the entire step by step treatment about medication and the way dressing needs to be done. A few questions: 1. Can we use betadine? 2. What about cavilon spray to apply on top of the wound? Is that effective? 3. Can we put neosporin powder? 4. How do we keep the wound dry? 5. Do we go to a GP or a dermatologist for bed sore ? 6. Is there an effective homeopathy medicine for this problem? Thank you.
