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.
He is under a dermatologist and has a hx of trying betamethasone dipropionate and fucidic acid which have not helped.
I'm just trying to think outside the box for this patient but don't want to look potentially silly in asking for a dressing which obviously won't work, I've only found evidence of hydrocolloids on linchen amyloidosis and acne.
Any help much appreciated!
Thanks in advance :drinks
