How can bed sores be treated? Could you recommend any cream or gel that does not cause a burning sensation?
Bed sores (pressure ulcers) require proper care along with creams for healing. The key steps are to keep the wound clean (preferably with saline), reduce pressure by changing position every 2-3 hours, and maintain good hygiene. Gentle options like hydrogel dressings or soothing gels help keep the wound moist and usually do not cause a burning sensation, while barrier creams can protect the surrounding skin. Avoid harsh antiseptics, as they may irritate the wound.
