Curing pressure sores
It’s happened again. A sore on one “butt cheek”. I’ve used aloe leaf and Lugol’s iodine previously, always with very good success. But somehow this sore (though small in diameter) was deeper than the others had been by the time I discovered its presence. In fact, I think that a bolt on my new wheelchair may have initially caused the sore during a “transfer”, rather than actual pressure. But once it’s there, it’s there, and pressure on it becomes the enemy. My beloved frozen slices of aloe leaf have now gotten me out of danger and on the road to recovery, but I think that the light scaring from previous bouts with sores (especially in the hospital and nursing homes) are slowing my healing process this time. I searched the internet and found something I like the looks of,...and were its price something like $50, rather than $389.99, they would already have my money.

Have any of you used this cushion or a similar, hopefully cheaper, version?
