Antibiotics Post SHTF

[Highlander]

If you were clever you can make your own penicillin, but its not easy,.. Russian soldiers during the war would put moldy bread onto wounds to heal themselves,.... but I have learnt that it should not be Rye bread as that produces something completely different.

.... but there are other things, history from the first world war showed us that maggots into a wound cleans it out without the need for antibiotics, they are still being used today

Manaka Honey is anti bacterial, and will clean a wound in no time, I have an old Collie today that has a large hole in his leg, we are treating very nicely with honey, Manuka is best, but any honey will do

Sugar, they are starting to use this in Africa, it stops bleeding and sterilizes the wound, it needs cleaning out and more put in once the sugar has turned to a liquid

Fresh Garlic is also anti bacterial.

.... and last but not least a better way to use the dreaded weed, .... there was once a doctor in the states who stopped the bleeding of a hunter by using his crushed up cigarettes,.. even a smoke who in hails smoke will help his nose bleed to stop, its the nicotine that does the job not the smoke
