Abstract

Colostrum has been shown to be suitable for oral and/or topical applications. Colostrum decreases the amount of discharge from wounds and also accelerates healing, leading to a decrease in the number of dressings. In this study, 40 patients with chronic non-healing wounds were divided into two groups, considering the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Group I included 15 patients with conventional dressings, and Group II included 25 patients with added topical colostrum dressings. All patients were assessed at the time of presentation and after 21 days. The results of the present study indicate that colostrum powder dressings may be used as an adjunct in the management of chronic non-healing wounds.

Keywords: chronic wounds; colostrum dressing; conventional dressing; wound healing.
