NAME_OF_REMEDY: Burns and Fevers
INGREDIENTS: egg whites
INSTRUCTIONS:
I know of an exceptionally effective natural remedy for healing burns and lowering
a fever: egg whites.
Egg whites are by far the best method to lower a high temperature within
MINUTES! When I was about 4 or 5 years old, I had acquired a fever so high that
I startedto hallucinate. My mother was in a panic, she feared brain damage if
something didn't lower the fever and FAST. My grandma told her to soak 2 cloths
or hankerchiefs in egg whites and put on the soles of the feet (cover with socks).
The egg whites instantaneously start to draw the temperature DOWN from the brain
(where it is dangerous) to the feet (where it can do no damage). After that
incident my mom used this method successfully every time I had high temp. The
egg whites are also a miracle cure for burns, even severe ones. Soak or coat
affected area in egg white. While the egg white is still wet you will feel no
pain from the burn. As soon as it dries up the pain comes back so reapplication
is necessary. This method not only aleviates the pain it actually heals and
prevents scarring from the burn.I would like to let more people know about the
miraculous effectiveness of treating fevers and burns with egg whites so please
post this on your site if you deem fit.

COUNTRY_OF_REMEDY: Australia
INGREDIENTS: Sodium Bicarbonate, also known as baking soda, or
bicarbonate of soda. You can buy it at your local supermarket.
INSTRUCTIONS: For minor burns (ie from picking up
a hot frypan, touching a very hot surface, steam, flame, sunburn). For a small
burn, mix one or two teaspoons of sodium bicarbonate with a very small amount
of water, just enough to make it into a smooth paste (not runny). Put the paste
directly onto to burned area and leave it for some minutes. It will quickly
make the pain subside. When it begins to dry out and fall off, replace it with
fresh wet paste. Do this for at least 5 -
10 minutes or more, as required.It not only stops the pain but also promotes
apid healing without scarring. It can also be used to relieve and reduce swelling
in the case of insect bites, in conjunction with anti-histamine tablets. This
is a time-honoured Australian remedy, and in my personal experience works far
better than any burn cream or ointment on the market. I do not know if it can
be used for serious (third-degree) burns. These should be referred to a hospital
or medical practicioner for treatment.

NOT blister.

cold water and vingar compresses untill the pain goes away then apply potatoe
slices. It works well on second degree burns, which blister.

Ingredients: Nail-Varnish :use only Cellulose base Polylemere with non
methanol base solvant.
Instructions: Important Remedy against all BurnsIn this statement, I suggest
to verifying this effective remedy against skin burns made by fire or iron.
It is enough to spread a coat of Nail-Varnish on the burn. Once dry, the film
is going to prevent infections and stops immediately pain. Before to test it,
it is necessary to make a toxicological search on the elements which compose
the varnish, because these elements can pass in the blood.

Ingredients: 1 Aloe Leaf
Instructions: Squeeze the gel out of the Aloe leaf and rub on the affected area
at least once a day until goneThe burn will both be relieved and will go away
in a few days.Aloe works like a charm!
For years if I got a burn, the old
butter standby, or ice. But after visiting a hospital in Pittsburgh, a
doctor told me to put colgate toothPASTE on the burn.
It can not be the jell type. It must be paste. You won't believe
how this works!! It provides instant relief to the burn area also.
But don't risk anything if the burn is severe enough seek medical attention,
but for smaller burns, *(yes even sunburn) use colgate toothpaste

This will work on any type of burn. I know people say run cool water over a burn or put ice on it . No, that doesn't work as well. I was told by my mother -in - law when you burn yourself whether it is from the stove, steam, or hot iron, if possible soak it in cold milk right away. If you can't soak it in milk, dip a cloth in cold milk and place it on the burn immediately. The milk takes the sting out. Next rub some pure vitamin E on the burn to help it heal faster without as much scarring.

This is my favorite home remedy for burns. First, soak the burn in cold water or alcohol and put slices of potato on it, because the potato absorbs the heat and makes the blister go down. It doesn't like the sun. If you get sun you will get a scar. Also : take medicine - maybe burn medicine.......

Not everyone Κcan use this remedy but it works for minor burns, scrapes, cold sores, and pimples. IT"S BREASTMILK !! As a nursing mother of three children, I know this to be true and it should since mother'sΚ milk is loaded with antibodies whichΚare natural healers.ΚΚIfΚ a nursing woman has sore and cracked nipples, she is usually told to smooth some breastmilk on them after each feeding and the healing properties will allow them to heal faster. This is also true for skin in general and it's nice to know that it is gentle and can be taken with you anywhere you go.ΚΚΚ
