First aid for cuts and other minor wounds

Even though cuts, bruises and scratches are classified as superficial wounds, we should not neglect treating them as we can get ourselves some serious infections that will only complicate something that seemed to be so minor.

Cuts are more frequent during childhood and the first measure of treatment would be cleaning the wound with water or a local antiseptic solution. I recommend pharmaceutical sprays for opened wounds that are painful at touch.
Do not use medicinal alcohol for cleaning up a wound. This substance will only burn the tissues nearby and will cause major discomfort in children especially. You should use oxygenic water as dust, mud and any other impurities that might be found in the wound will clear out better.

5 Tips on how to treat bruises

We all know what bruises are, how painful and unpleasant they are especially for women. No matter how careful we are it is impossible for us to keep or body away from bruising. Different accidents, traumatisms and even an intense pressure on our arms or legs can have as a result the occurrence of a big violet bruise.

Here are some tips on how to help your body remove faster that nasty-looking bruise:

1. If you have a simple bruise, with no other tissue lesions you can apply on that area a bandage soaked in comfrey tea. Keep it there for one hour. The tea is easy to prepare: ½ l of boiling water adding 30g of comfrey. Let it rest for 10 minutes. Do not drink the remaining tea after applying the bandage.

2. Every 3 hours apply marigold cream on the bruising zone. This will prevent an intense bruising from occurring.
