Depends: If the wound is clean i would use a collagen dressing of some sort. If you need a cream i would try medihoney gel or santyl. Both of these medications can help keep the wounds clean.

Stage ulcers: There is a big difference between a stage 2 and a stage 3 ulcer. There really is no in-between and the treatments that you use for each of these varies dependent on multiple factors including location on the body, your ability to heal and cost just to name a few.

No snake oil: First there is a very significant difference between stage 2 and 3 ulcers. Is there a 'cream' to help either? Well, in a way a debriding enzyme for a necrotic wound could be called a cream, in some cases a barrier cream may help a stage 2 wound but what treatment to use on a pressure ulcer is a very specialized area, take the wound to a wound specialist for best results.
