There are several reasons why our mobility can be restricted and, unfortunately, staying in one position for too long can lead to the unwanted result of pressure sores. Regularly checking the skin and changing positions can help prevent it, but once they occur, they can be painful and difficult to treat. Sudocrem®’s versatility means it can relieve the symptoms and and treat the sores.
