How can I speed the healing of a small wound? ?

Question

I've tried Polysporin in the past, but I'd like a remedy that doesn't cost me.

Answer 1

you could steal some neosporin. just a suggestion

Answer 2

Apply some Oil of Oregano.(can also be taken internally)

use some Essential oil of Lavender

apply some aloe vera gel. (can also be taken internally)

vitamin E oil ( highest potency willing to pay for). (capsules can be taken internally).

Answer 3

whatever you do, dont put sudocrem on it cos it leaves a scar. and keep plasters off cos with a damp surface it'll take longer to dry out, what works marvels for me and my daughter is e45 cream! seriously. put a little bit on the wound and it'll dry it out and keep it moisturised at the same time and it stops that tight stretchy feeling aswell. try it. it works for us, and i've made my friends and sister buy it aswell, it works for a lot more than just eczema.

Answer 4

Arnica works well...either arnica oil or done in a homeopathic base.

As well, Emu oil works wonders. I've burned myself with a hot pot and it caused a blister...I immediately put emu oil and within minutes the pain subsided and the blister was minimized...if it did blister, it healed quickly and nicely. I have no scar once the skin peeled off.

Pure aloe vera works well, too.

Answer 5

Raw honey is very effective with speeding the healing of wounds.

Answer 6

My friend's dad got into a terrible car accident. He required skull surgeries (no more details)

When his dad talked to the doctor after all the work, the doctor told him "No alcohol" because he feared it would open the wound back up. So, for the next 6 weeks, his dad (I'll call him Tom) started eating mint leaves on everything. The doctor made a house call and told Tom that he could start lightly drinking alcohol again. The wounds had healed so much faster than Neosporin ever would have. The scars had been a little less noticeable than if he would have stuck with regular OTC stuff.

Stick with nature. It'll help you in the long run.

Note: Don't apply mint leaf extract or fresh crushed mint leaves directly to the wound. It'll kinda burn. Mint works better when ingested.
