Small wound, big challenge

The case of a woman with serious underlying disease (systemic lupus erythematosus, antiphospholipid syndrome, chronic lower-limb ischaemia) requiring permanent 15-drug medication. The arterial leg ulcer was extremely painful. The wound could only be dressed if opiates were administered to the patient. Ms Krpatová, the nurse in charge at Hradec Králové University Hospital, said, that although it was a relatively small wound (5 x 4 x 1 cm), it was a great success for it to be healed completely with Sorelex. This treatment lasted for a total of five months.

Wounds that time can’t heal

There are wounds that resist all available treatment and trouble patients for years. Take leg ulcers, for example. In this case, the patient had been suffering from open and very painful ulcers for 20 years. As no treatment method had proved as successful, amputation was recommended as the best solution. Fortunately, Sorelex appeared on the market at that time and wound were healed over six months of careful treatment.

The wound which grows bigger before your very eyes

In many cases, a diabetic ulcer is preceded by an entirely banal cause. The rapid progression into a large wound, often complicated by infection, can catch patients unawares. In this case, the chronic wound was caused by a sock that became scrunched up when the patient was wearing shoes. Within days, the small blister had transformed into an infected ulcer. As the patient quickly sought help, the wound was healed by Sorelex without further complications in less than two months.
