Homemade remedy for bruises and pain - grandmother's recipe
Homemade remedy for bruises and pain - grandmother's recipe

My children were always hyper active and great explorers. Since we often moved with the bees, we were, of course, very often in meadows, forests and various rural environments.

How to prevent little explorers from getting hurt??? Difficult. So once my son closed his sister's fingers with the chicken coop door. The fingers became as thin as fleece paper, because the bata tightened the cut. It wasn't intentional, of course, but that's what happened. And now what?? We are far from a doctor, and something needs to be done. Nothing is broken, because children's bones are more durable than we think. But it should ease the pain and prevent bruising. And grandmother, who was close to 90, gave us the perfect recipe. Later, that same recipe helped my friend "cure" a sprained arm he fell off his bike.

And the recipe is as follows: finely crush the center of the bread and soak it in water, not much, just enough so that the bread starts to soften. Finely chop the onion and mash it a little more. Then, mix the bread and onion into a compact mass. Wrap that mass around the injured part of the hand, or someone else, and wrap it with a bandage or a cotton cloth. Leave it on the injured area for up to 12 hours. The amount of bread and onion is determined by the size of the part of the body that is injured.

In the meantime, the mass hardens, like plaster, and the onion draws out the bruises and reduces the pain. Repeat the procedure several times, if necessary, but at least twice is necessary.

Yes, everything smells a little (a little more) like onions, but the problem is solved.

The fingers recovered the very next day and were ready for a new action.

There, I hope you never need it, but I don't think it's bad to know.
