A member asked:
What kind of pain medication would be best to relieve the pain from a diabetic ulcer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Coordinated Care: The best therapy would be the involvement of wound care, infectious disease and possibly pain management. There is no one good drug. You may require medication for diabetic neuropathy as well as standard pain medication. A full evaluation will determine that.
