Guest guest Posted February 10, 2004 Report Share Posted February 10, 2004 Thank You very much, Honey was something that I considered but was not sure.

At one point he developed a bedsore on his hip that measured at least 2 " in circumference. None of the creams or meds his M.D. gave him helped. Eventually he let mom treat it naturally. She slathered a gauze pad with natural honey and taped the gauze over the ulcer. The skin began granulating within a few days. Over the course of a couple weeks, the ulcer eventually healed. I strongly urge you seek out the cause of your condition, but you might want to consider this as a possible stopgap treatment. I consider honey like the Johnson & Johnson cream of the natural first aid kit. Good stuff. No worries about germs, etc., it's naturally bactericidal.
