A healing patch just proved itself for the foot wounds that refuse to close

For people with diabetes, a foot ulcer that will not heal is one of the most feared complications. A peer-reviewed trial published in the Journal of Wound Care has now confirmed that adding a treatment patch called PuraPly AM to standard care helped significantly more of these hard-to-heal wounds close within 12 weeks than standard care alone. The randomised trial ran across multiple hospitals — solid, published evidence for a wound that too often wins.
