How to treat bed sores?

Antipressure measure: Frequent position changes will prevent and heal existing wounds. Avoid staying in any single position more than two hours if confined to bed, along with cushioning of current wounds. Appropriate nutritional support and antibiotic treatment if wounds become infected are also important considerations.

Treatment depends on severity, but if mild, a protective cover (moleskin or similar) and pressure avoidance / repositioning, can allow it to heal. Pharmacies often have more sophisticated dressings that protect and cushion, some need a doctor's order.
