Ranking of ointments for bedsores – the best ointment for bedsores of 2024
Bedsores are a serious health problem for people with limited mobility or those who spend a long time in the same position. In order to prevent bedsores, it is important to use proper skin care, including creams or ointments. A good cream or ointment for bedsores should contain ingredients that accelerate skin regeneration and prevent the formation of ulcers. One of the most important ingredients in this respect is zinc, which has anti-inflammatory properties and accelerates wound healing. The skin of a bedridden person is particularly susceptible to irritation, and the use of a cream with inappropriate ingredients can lead to additional skin problems. Such a product should also bring quick relief. It turns out that some creams intended for baby care also work great for bedsores. Check out our ranking of the best creams for bedsores and find an effective and safe product for you.

Editorial Text:
Karnosil hydro-repair gel with silver ions and carnosine is a dermocosmetic that stimulates skin regeneration processes. It moisturizes and protects the skin against the harmful effects of external factors and infections 👍. Carnosine, d-panthenol and allantoin soothe irritation and redness, while silver ions accelerate skin regeneration, making it a good choice for use on damaged skin, including abrasions, wounds, cuts, chafing, burns (including sun burns) and bedsores. The testers noticed that the formula of the product is quite synthetic and contains a lot of paraffin 🧪. In addition, the consistency of the cream is oily, which is why it takes a lot of time to absorb. Karnosil works best under a dressing or bandage, which makes it a bit difficult to use, but there is no denying that it is quite effective.
Benefits
Karnosil, Repair hydro-gel with silver ions and carnosine
- effective on irritation
- also works on bedsores
- carnosine in the composition
Disadvantages
Karnosil, Repair hydro-gel with silver ions and carnosine
- small packaging volume

Editorial Text:
Sudocrem is a well-known cosmetic product that has been popular on the Polish market for years and recommended for the skin care of both children and adults. It can be used not only for irritations, bedsores, but also for nappy rash. It is highly effective due to the content of zinc oxide, which quickly soothes irritations and reduces redness already after the first application. However, it has a heavy consistency, which makes it difficult to spread and takes time to absorb ⌛. The formula is also chemical 🧪 – it includes preservatives and fragrances, so it is not a product based on natural ingredients. Despite this, Sudocrem turns out to be effective in many cases, although sometimes it can be too strong for the delicate baby skin and can be problematic due to its side effects - it can clog pores, which is why it closes the podium.
Benefits
Sudocrem, protective barrier cream for children and adults
- effective on chafed skin
- soothes irritation, abrasions and bedsores
- different packaging sizes
- versatile, suitable not only for children
Disadvantages
Sudocrem, protective barrier cream for children and adults
- a lot of chemical ingredients in the composition
- very thick consistency
- takes a fairly long time to absorb
- for some, it is too “heavy”
- may cause clogging

| Hydration | 7.3 |
| Price | 7.5 |
| Texture | 7.7 |
| Efficiency | 7.4 |
| No irritations | 7.2 |
| Composition | 7.1 |
Editorial Text:
Retimax 1500 protective ointment is a product that has won the recognition of testers thanks to its nourishing and regenerating properties. However, it should be noted that this is not a product without flaws. Retimax 1500 ointment is effective in the care of irritated and dry skin, as it soothes roughness and burning sensation 👍. It also relieves sunburn. The lack of fragrances is an advantage of the product, although overall it has a very heavy formula. As some of the testers note, the consistency of the ointment is quite oily, which may not suit all skin types. In addition, the ointment takes a long time to absorb and stains clothes, which can be problematic for people who do not like sticky consistency 🤨. Other disadvantages are the synthetic formula and the possibility of clogging pores, which can lead to breakouts 😬. Despite these drawbacks, the effect on bedsores and skin irritation is good, although it is a product that will work best for ad hoc use. It is also not recommended to use Retimax 1500 on the skin of the face.
Benefits
Retimax 1500, protective ointment with vitamin A
- Strong emollient effect
- soothes chafed skin
- can be used for bedsores
- works well for sunburn
Disadvantages
Retimax 1500, protective ointment with vitamin A
- very heavy formula
- formula based on petroleum jelly, paraffin and wax
- strongly comedogenic
- does not work well on the skin of the face
- greasy and leaves stains on clothes

Editorial Text:
Seni Care zinc oxide cream is a vegan product that is designed to protect the skin of people exposed to irritation, including bedridden patients, people wearing diapers and suffering from bedsores. The cream deeply moisturizes the skin and accelerates the regeneration of the epidermis, creating a transparent protective layer that allows the skin to breathe and protects it from unpleasant odours, including the smell of urine 🙂. Seni Care cream can be a good choice for people who suffer from urinary incontinence and need effective protection against the negative effects of irritants. Our testers, however, complained about a fairly synthetic composition with paraffin and PEG 🧪. However, despite the manufacturer's claims, the formula contains unnecessary fragrances.
Benefits
Seni Care, Zinc oxide cream for chafed skin
- contains zinc
- works on irritation
- eliminates unpleasant odours
Disadvantages
Seni Care, Zinc oxide cream for chafed skin
- PEG in the composition
- contains fragrances contrary to the manufacturer's claims
- availability
