   Stubborn to Heal, but gel is working!

   It appears to be working. I'll know today. Diabetic sores are difficult especially when you wear compression socks. I am glad I can get them on with the foam pad that you provide. It may make my doctor and hypoberic irrelevant.

1. Q

   Question: I have wet desquamation after radiation of my nose. I am told to keep it moist. I am looking for a product that will contour to my nose. Aquafor application creates excessive creamy exudates that get crusty and slough off when patted. Is the duoderm gel a good choice to promote healing and protect my skin?

   Question: Can this be used with the hydrocolloid dressing?

     Answer: Thank you for contacting customer care service. Hydrocolloid dressing itself contains gel-forming agents in an adhesive compound laminated onto a flexible, water-resistant outer layer.
     Hope this will help.
