Benefits of Cadomer Ointment
In Treatment of Venous Leg ulcers
Venous leg ulcers are chronic wounds that develop on the lower legs due to poor blood flow in the veins. Cadomer Ointment aids healing by drawing out excess fluid, controlling infection, and maintaining a clean and balanced wound surface. This helps reduce swelling, smell, and discomfort, allowing patients to move more comfortably and regain confidence in their daily activities.
In Treatment of Bed sores
Bedsores, or pressure sores, develop when prolonged pressure on the skin reduces blood flow to an area, often in people who are bedridden or immobile. Cadomer Ointment supports recovery by keeping the wound clean, preventing infection, and creating conditions that promote faster healing. This not only eases pain and irritation but also helps patients feel more comfortable and improves overall skin health and well-being.
In Treatment of Diabetic foot ulcers
Diabetic foot ulcers are open sores or wounds that occur in people with diabetes, often due to poor circulation and nerve damage. Cadomer Ointment helps these wounds heal faster by keeping the area clean, absorbing excess fluid, and reducing the risk of infection. It promotes a healthier wound environment and helps relieve pain. This prevents complications and improves mobility, making it easier for patients to stay active and maintain their quality of life.
