Bone wax is a nonabsorbable product used for providing hemostasis in bleeding bone. It may be used in podiatric surgery in areas of bleeding bone where bone healing and soft tissue attachment are not desired. As in any material implanted within body tissues, bone wax has possible side-effects. These may include foreign body reaction or increased susceptibility to infection.
