A collection of non-drug treatments which are pretty useful.


Diabetes pain
Friday, November 21, 2008

My father suffers from rather bad burning pain in his feet from diabetes. He was having trouble sleeping at night with it. While he was taking medication for this it caused him some serious side effects so he had to stop & the pain returned. His doctor recommended these thermal diabetes socks which have really helped his feet. He does see a podiatrist too.


Ear ache

My doctor gave me this natural treatment to help relieve ear ache which works well if you use it as soon as you start to feel pain. Gently fry a clove or two of fresh, crushed garlic in some olive oil for several minutes. Allow to cool & strain. Use an eye dropper to put a few drops of the oil in the sore ear & cover ear with a warm towel or thermal pack....not hot. Take care to cover pillow with a towel to avoid oil leaving marks.


Pain

I used to get strong pain in my hands after using my computer for a while. My physiotherapist recommended I use thermal therapy gloves which help prevent pain without any meds. I also have some gentle stretching exercises to do.


Natural Dandruff Treatment
Saturday, November 08, 2008

I find 1 tablespoon of vinegar in a cup of warm water rinsed through hair after shampooing helps relieve scalp itching & stops dandruff. Leave on for 5 minutes & rinse out. You can also use lemon juice too. An added advantage is it also leaves your hair shiny.
