Treatment for Wound Infections

[MaryN]

Interesting information, Jonas. We already use bicarbonate of soda for cleaning things here, and it's great as an addition to bathwater if you have skin problems.

I've just got over a nasty v-shaped cut on my leg (entirely my own fault - clumsy bat!) by plastering local honey on a dry dressing and bandaging it to the wound. Worked a treat. It doesn't sting like the dickens the way peroxide does either.
