Answer 2

Where is the pressure sore? The main thing to help is to keep pressure off of this area, if he is bed ridden he should be turned at least every 2 hours. You can use allevyn or another brand, of dressing over it. Also ensure he is getting proper nutrition to assist in healing, especially proteins. Try ensure to help boost his protein levels that will assist in healing.

The first step in healing is to reduce or eliminate the cause, ie, pressure. Turning and repositioning the patient remains the cornerstone of prevention and treatment through pressure relief. Perform this every 2 hours, even in the presence of a specialty surface or bed. During transfer and repositioning, make efforts to avoid sliding the patient over a surface to prevent shear forces and friction. Patients suffering a pressure sore while sitting should be placed on bed rest. Pressure reduction may be achieved through the use of specialized support surfaces for bedding and wheelchairs that can maintain tissue pressures less than 30 mm Hg. In theory, reduction of tissue pressures below capillary filling pressures should allow for adequate tissue perfusion. These specialized surfaces include foam devices, air-filled devices, water-filled devices, gel-filled devices, low-air-loss beds (Flexicair, KinAir), and air-fluidized beds (Clinitron, FluidAir). Low-air-loss beds support the patient on multiple inflatable air-permeable pillows. Air-fluidized beds suspend the patient on an air-permeable mattress containing millions of uniformly sized silicone-coated beads. These devices often are heavy, expensive, difficult to clean, and require ongoing maintenance to ensure proper function. No one device has been shown to be clearly superior, but all reduce pressure sore incidence and severity when compared to conventional hospital mattresses and wheelchair cushions. However, pressure sores may develop in patients using these devices, and the importance of turning and repositioning cannot be overemphasized.
Wound dressings vary with the state of the wound, and the goal is to achieve a clean, healing wound with granulation tissue. A stage I lesion may require no dressing. Stage II ulcers confined to the epidermis or dermis may be treated with a hydrocolloid (DuoDerm) occlusive dressing or a transparent adhesive dressing (OpSite), both of which maintain a moist environment to facilitate reepithelialization. For more advanced ulcers, a variety of dressing options are available, depending on the state of the wound.

I have no idea about med's sorry. but it's important to increase blood flow to the area for good healing..i dont know if he could manga some stretches/exercies/massage around the area. Most importantly dont let his weight rest on it, or on other susceptible areas for too long like his butt or heels
