laughI'm here same as always. You are the one who has been lurking.Those "old wives tales" kept the human race alive and kicking for a couple hundred thousand years. If the honey didn't have antimicrobial properties, the honey in the hive would go funky.Wow, NC! Hope it is doing better now. The picture before the honey and after is incredible. Had no idea it would do that! Continued prayers from here. Let us know how you are doing.
Thanks, depotoo. I didn't know about it either. But then I read a study in a medical journal where they had a little over a hundred people with second degree burns, I forget how they spit them percentage wise, but the honey healed the wounds and cured without scarring much faster (and better) versus Mepilex and collaganses santyl that I'm wearing now on the leg. It was spread between them, too, like 70 some percent versus thirty or so percent.
The doctor, just the ER doctor, said I shouldn't have tried any home remedies. It hurt like crazy, I knocked out at least once, not sure if i knocked out fully the second time, just a few seconds bith times, I was even crying. And like a baby, lemme tell ya. Ha.
Anyway. They left the honey on, though. Heh heh. They just put the mepilex and santyl over top of it. They didn't even have to clean it, the raw honey worked that well.
Hmmmm: sometimes those old wives' tales are good stuff. I put honey onto a gum after a tooth extraction not long ago; worked a treat as it was starting to get infected. the antibiotics may have helped a little bit.
But get well and all that; glad you're OK. And yes: prayers too.

Garlic is full of antibiotics, too. The Brits used it to pack wounds on the battlefield during WWI.
I have not seen you on the forum for a long time.
Why?
Are you fighting the sins of your wild American youth?
as the Russians say:
"all men are bastards, and all girls are whores?"

I'm sorry, this is a simple and rude Russian joke.
I was sure that I was never hiding and always present myself honestly.

These are not my problems, but problems of moderators.
By the way, moderators ...
Why can't I embed my construction photos?
