4. Q

   Question: Could this be used for a very small, about 1in in length and minimal depth, opening on the coccyx area? Just slightly above the anal opening? No drainage from opening. Just looking for something to help heal. I recall duoderm dressings for decubitus ulcers when I was working as RN. Thank you.
