Discuss with Dr.: You need to discuss with the dr. In charge of the care for all the issues that could be possible in this vague scenario. If you don't trust the dr. Then need to get one you can trust.

It can be hard: Once out of the hospital, the main treatments of bedsores are to continue relief of pressure. The mattress is important but frequent turning is needed. Good nutrition is another key part of healing bedsores. The area needs to be kept dry and clean which is why the catheter and enemas but indwelling catheters have infection risks. Hope this helps!
