- I am currently treating a decubitus (pressure sore) by cleaning it
- with peroxide, placing ordinary table sugar on the area, and
- covering it with duoderm. It's working very well. Sugar
- apparently is quite helpful in healing open wounds - maybe it
- should be used more often following surgery, or for burn victims,
- or other open areas. *adh*
