Bedsore problem
Father aged 77 years underwent cervical surgery 2 months back has developed bedsore. We are doing mapilex AG dressing every alternate day but the progress is not much. He is not able to change position as his limb power is lost.
Please suggest if there is any other medication available for faster healing.
