        Looking for advice for treating Stage 4 pressure wound while in hospital since February. Doubt nurses will let me near it with any herbs. Patient is on antibiotics for sepsis. Any advice will be greatly appreciated!

          Look at the Wound Management Case Studies – Doc demonstrates how he manages pressure sores with the poultice formula as a topical spray, not internally.  Hope it helps!

            I’ve treated some really grizzly pressure sores. I use the Poultice tincture as a wound spray and add marshmallow internally. See the wound management lessons. :0)

            Don't use herbs or combine herbs with medications or use them during lactation or pregnancy without talking with your healthcare provider.

                Bless you for answering my post. He has a wound vac on it now, so I can’t spray it with anything. I will continue giving him plantain tincture and add the marshmallow. Should be going home this week so I can help him more. Thanks again!
