I soak my ulcers in Condy's Crystals = Potassium Permanganate. You can buy it from the chemist. A Tablespoon of it will last a long time. Only need less than a pinch. I dissolve it in a glass of hot water first, then add it to the water in whatever I'm soaking my feet in - at the moment a 4" deep tray, but have used a large rubbish bin when I had them up my legs. The colour you soak in should be like a strong rose wine. It turns your legs and nails brown. It's anti bacterial and more. I then clean out of the ulcers what I can, and put emla on them which numbs them enough after an hour, to debride them some more, to get all the slough off. Then I use acticoat flex 3, cut to the size of each ulcer, wet it and cover it with a porous sticking plaster so I can spray water on the acticoat through the dressing 3 or 4 times a day. Then every third day I repeat the process. Acticoat Flex 3 should be changed every three days. I have also used Iodosorb an iodine gel in a tube, covered with cuticerin and gauze, also using the emla to debride etc. Iodosorb needs to be changed when it loses colour as it has used its usefulness at that stage. My second round of leg ulcers was biopsied as Leukocytoclastic Vasculitis, which looks and acts just the same as the Lilvedoid Vasculopathy biopsied first time around. I was taking 300mg aspirin for the livedoid. now I take colchicerine for the Leuko. WHAT DO YOU OTHERS DO ???
