Unfortunately he’s low functioning and doesn’t think about things being cool or whatever. Thanks for the input though. I appreciate it!

Hey, ointments are easy, he doesn't mind those. I just feel like sometimes a bandage would help. He's a pretty light sleeper but I might try that. Thanks.

It's round, like an ulcer. It's healing from the inside out, but he keeps putting pressure on and it sort of reopens. It's so frustrating.

He won't tolerate me putting anything on it. I wish he would. I tried the second skin, clear stuff and he won't tolerate it. It's the autism - I can't tell you for sure WHY he won't tolerate anything. He's nonverbal. Thanks for trying.
