hello,
it looks like your mom is developing
pressure sores or bed sores. this may be due to her sitting on the wheel chair for a long time. Bed sores, also known as
pressure ulcers, pressure sores or decubitus ulcers are skin lesions. one of the causes for this to occur is unrelieved pressure. If discovered early, bed sores are treatable. This can be treated and prevented from worsening by following certain remedies like cleaning and dressing the wound, protecting the bony areas and frequently changing the position.
Nutrition plays a very important role in most health conditions and following a healthy diet can have a positive effect on the patients overall health and well-being.
Vitamin C and zinc are both important for healing wounds and therefore I would advise you to increase the foods that are high in these nutrients. Oranges, lemons, limes, peppers and other citric fruits are all high in Vitamin C and therefore their consumption should be increased. Protein is also important for building muscle and strengthening the body. Therefore, certain foods that are high in protein, like eggs, chicken, turkey, low far dairy products and a few varieties of nuts should be given to people who are immobile.
It is extremely important for her to consume a significant amount of water throughout the day as this helps keep the skin hydrated and improves its overall health, thereby reducing the risk of bed sores.
Bactroban application can be continued.
