My husband is paraplegic. He got some pressure sores on both hips. The right side was slight, then took a turn for the worse when it started decaying under the sore. Surgery was done, and he was put on a wound vac for 7 weeks. The left side started the same way and became really nasty (sorry for the graphics, but it's necessary). Our medicaid was taken away, so they took him off the wound vac. We used all natural things and the right side was less than half the size when the left side started turning black. We had 3 days before the end of medicaid, so the doctor did surgery again. The right had a lot of tunneling, so they had to cut ALL of it out. It's the size of a large lemon on the right, and 1 1/2 inches deep. When I move his leg, the ball of his hip can be seen moving, too. There is a small bit of that bone open. This is scary to us. It's also something that most people don't get to see everyday,and a good anatomy lesson : ). There is one 2 inch tunnel that hasn't grown, but can harbor dangerous bacteria and who knows what all. There's no infection in either one of the wounds, and granulation has started in both. I know helichrysum stimulates skin growth/tissue growth, and I need to get more next week as I used an entire bottle already. I'm using myrrh, DDR Prime, frank, On Guard, occasional oregano (diluted), and if it bleeds, geranium. That geranium stopped the bleeding just hours after the surgery! Love it. I also use my own homemade comfrey ointment, which has sped up the granulation process. Anyone have any ideas on how to get muscle to grow more quickly? I do have almost 400 points in my LRP. Right now my husband has no medical coverage anymore, and his SSI dried up, too. Creativity wins extra points....THANK YOU in advance for any ideas you may have!!!
