Question: I have been having issues with a wound on my foot that won’t heal. I have heard about special bandages that help ulcers heal fast. Where can I get these?

Answer:  Specialized bandages, dressings, and skin substitutes aid in wound closure, control associated pain and replace the skin function to promote healing of the wound. They require a prescription, and most are only available in advanced wound care centers.
