Peri Rectal Sacral Herpes
Description:
66 year old Caucasian female, immune suppressed secondary to chemotherapy for ovarian CA. Fecal and urinary incontinence. Foley to manage the urine. Moisture barrier ointment with dimethicone applied heavily to the affected area gave pain relief because the nerve endings were covered, and protected the lesions from fecal incontinence. No rinse cleanser was used for each episode of fecal incontinence to minimize mechanical contact with the lesions. Healing happens with Acyclovair Rx. But not worsened or complicated with fecal contamination.
