I got a new heating pad in November and remember waking up with it being hot, I turned it off and rolled over. Days Later found out I had two bad burns one on each butt cheak. About 4 inches from my crack. I own my own business and staying off was not an option in my life. I had used duoderm thick dressing first with a larger band aid over it since it was still releasing a lot of fluid. Then got a bad water burn on my foot just before Christmas, some was a second degree burn. So off to the wound clinic. There I got fibracol plus. I started using that on all my wounds. My foot is almost healed. The ones on my butt are healing, it has been slow. I wish I could remember how to post pictures from my photo gallery. I have been taking pictures every few days though they are pretty gross. I use a Roho cushion. I had been changing the dressing every night, now just every few days. I sure hear you about being on bed rest. I could not do that mentally nor due to my business. It has been nearly 3 months but the center is almost filled in probably close to a Nickle size. These had been about 2x3 inches. I had not noticed them until they had a semi scab on them. I work around water all day so wet spots on my cushion is normal. Let me know how to post pics from my photo gallery and I do a few.both items can be bought on Amazon.
