As my wife begin to shower less frequently we found sore spots especially in body creases. I had been using Bag Balm my entire life. My father used it when his hands got chapped from working in concrete. So, as we found sores we covered them with Bag Balm and in a matter of a day or so they were all healed up. I mentioned this to our doctor on one of our visits and he assured me that it was a good solution. Much more economical than some of the expensive things you can buy to accomplish the same thing.
Because she now spends 18 to 20 hours a day lying in bed and the rest of the day sitting in a wheelchair, we are particularly mindful of any new sore spots. Most of the time Bag Balm will have them healed within a day.
