ULCERS, TROPICAL

    Tropical ulcers (also known as naga sores) usually occur in hot, humid climates. A large painless sore develops, often on the feet or legs, This is usually associated with a bacterial infection, poor nutrition or
environmental factors.
    * As a preventive measure massage the legs daily with Renew Intensive Skin Therapy. To treat the ulcer, bathe the sore gently with Antibacterial Liquid Soap and water. Cover the area with Triple Antibiotic Ointment or a surgical pad saturated in a 1:3 solution of T36-C5 and olive oil.
