Ingredients: Lysol in the spray can. Regular. When my father was ill he was in the bed for over a year. My mother took care of him. Everyday she sprayed the Lysol directly on his body. The doctors where always so amazed that he never had one bed sore.

These were the instructions given by a Korean surgeon (in th USA) to myelderly mother. It did work successfully.Clean the wound daily with Ivory soap and water. Pat dry. Apply honey to the wound, then sprinkle with brown sugar granules. Cover with a sterile gauzepad, then tape. The next day, the honey & sugar & wound exudate will
bestuck to the gauze. Rip off the gauze. (This acts as a debridement; toremove dead tissue. The sugar helps debride and the honey is a naturalantibiotic). Repeat daily. It can take several months and even up to a yearbut it will close up the wound when the dead tissue is gone.

Ingredients: Just regular cane sugar
Instructions: My father had a bedsore that continued to get larger and badly infected. The surgeon had cut out the dead tissue 2 or 3 times
until the hole was about 2 inches wide and 1 1'2 deep. We ask his homebound nurse if she would try filling the bedsore with table sugar. She checked with the MD she worked for and he said to go ahead with the treatment. She would clean the wound first and then fill it with sugar.
The wound starting healing and healed fast. It works because sugar feeds the tissue and bacteria CANNOT grow in the presence of sugar. Also, the wound must be covered completely with bandage and tape as to keep anything out of the wound and to hold in the sugar. Remember, wound
must be disinfected every day and sugar replaced in the cavity. In the event the bedsore is small or minor then honey used on it and covered
should be enough. If it is deep (as his was), then the regular cane sugar we all keep in our homes should be used.
