pt had skin cancer removed from lower leg and skin graft (from thigh) to wound. Staples removed 5 days ago. I had this photo sent via text with patient wondering what he should put on wound (he did not feel as though anything was wrong with graft). What do people think? Graft rejection? Does wound need debriding?

Wound/ ostomy recommendations needed: 78 year old male hospice patient with terminal diagnosis of ESRD with many commodities. Wound developed fairly rapidly. It is continuing to spread and is now making it hard for the colostomy bag to get a good seal which then results in stool getting in the wound, making it worse. Patient has weeks to months to live. The goal is not to heal the wound nor is patient interested in going to the wound clinic for advice. Our concern is the quick progression of the wound that is expanding toward the stoma/ SPC and the damage it could cause if it reaches either one. Any recommendations on wound care to at least slow the progression of this?
