AMAZING RESULT OF PERSEVERANCE


2 years ago, this foot could have been amputated. It was gangrenous with the bones of the feet showing and darkening of the toes. The patient refused to have the amputation. Instead he beg me to debride and dressed the wound for almost 6 months  every 3 days. I used an unconventional preparation of wound dressing with SILVER SULFADIAZINE CREAM impregnated into a gauze with H2O2. It grew new tissues and even exceeded its skin covering. The foot looks very normal except for the wound and with the absence of the darkening of the toes.
If  the patient did not persevere to ask and I succumb to the surgical dictum of remove what dead tissues there are, this foot could have been long gone.
