Moving On
I took an hour or so of washing my ulcer with hydrogen peroxide before taking this picture. I just took a small glass of water and made a 50/50 mixture with the peroxide. Its painless. The white "gunk" that covers the ulcer sticks on really tight. A little peroxide wash can loosen things up. Again everything I do is pointed towards keeping my ulcer clean and dry. It allows the healing process to "do its thing". I have also noticed that the more exercise I do, walking, the better condition my leg seems to be. My problems with edema in both my legs is gone. It was such a pain in the ass I'm glad its gone away. I'm sure the exercise helped this out a lot. As we get better weather in NYC I'm sure I'll spend more time walking around.
