Dear All, I’m not quite sure if I am thinking on the correct track here but I was wondering if anyone has any experience with hydrocolloid dressings in heel fissures and hyperkeratosis? I remember seeing a Pod use granuflex on heel fissures when I was training but I am wondering if anyone else uses it and whether it is any good? I have a patient who is type 1 diabetic with severe psorasis, he has 2 large plaques around his calc region which are causing full thickness heel fissures which are subsequently causing infection and poor diabetic control due to infection etc.
