Treat Boils

Often, when we stress out, boils accumulate over all over the body particularly from the waist down. Boils can occur in armpits as well. Here are some ways to treat boils.


Steps
DAILY
  1. To reduce pain and inflammation :Apply a slice of a raw potato to the affected area. Raw cabbage leaf is also very good for reducing inflammation and promoting healing.
  2. To heal: Apply undiluted niaouli or tea tree essential oil to the infected area using cotton pads three or four times a day.
WEEKLY
  1. To deep cleanse : A local application of a basic clay mix will help eliminate pus, toxins, and residual infection. You may choose to substitute cucumber juice or a cold infusion of a chamomile for the water.
AFTER HEALING

To reduce scarring and prevent further infection

  1. Apply a mix of equal amounts of rosehip seed and sweet almond carrier oils with 5 percent of two essential oils niaouli and lavender or tea tree and lavender.
  2. Massage lightly, twice a day.



Tips
  • There are also other options to treat a boil. Run warm water on it while you take a shower.
  • Grab a moderately hot cloth and place over boil, continue this daily till the pus from the boil drains completely.
  • DO NOT pop boils immediately.
  • Be patient, and let them drain !



Warnings
  • DO NOT POP BOILS, if you do, the infection from the boil will release into the blood stream and may cause other problems.
