Sorry for the blurry quality. Client has 2 new areas of skin breakdown on both sides of buttock. Somewhat macerated appearance, no drainage, looks like "tearing" of hyper granulated skin. It's very red and +painful for client when he walks or with care to the same area. Need help with wound care and dressing suggestions.
