We noticed a stage 1 bedsore 7 days back on the buttocks area of my 80 year old mother who has stable pelvis fracture currently so on bed since last one month.She has diabetes with sugar controlled right now and on aspirin and cholesterol lowering medications(past stroke 2017) .Megaheal cream twice a day with dressings and neoporin npowder once a day was applied upon.However some new sore was seen developing near old one ( image attached) probably since she wears diapers all time hence airbed mattress not much helping .Please let us know what stage the bedsore currently is and quick action to resolve ASAP .

This is not a Tele-consultation case.
She should be seen by a General Surgeon in your area who will decide what can be done to prevent and treat bedsores.
