What is best barrier cream for a bed sore on an incontinent adult?

I developed a pressure ulcer. It is in the worse place. Right in the crack of my upper thigh between the leg and vagina area. I put the triad dressing on but it is impossible to keep covered. Any advice is greatly appreciated. I am in a wheelchair and have to pay for transport to and from dr, so I try not to go too much, I have been able to take care of them in most places but this one is hard to keep covered.

My husband suffers from a pressure wound on his backside, right in the crack between his cheeks. His dr. ordered a home health nurse who comes twice weekly. She orders all his supplies and Medicare pays for everything. Your dr. may be able to get you some help in your home.

@psale92415 Oh, to have a pressure sore right where you sit. Ouch! You mentioned that you have had several before, but you’ve been able to care for them. Have you asked your doctor for a referral to a wound nurse? They are priceless! Also, read the previous entries in this discussion. Many wound creams were mentioned.
What product are you currently sitting on in your w/chair?
