To the poster who didn't know what it is and the one who said it's been found to retard healing... When I was growing up (late 50's, 60's) we went through bottles of this during the summer due to bicycle wrecks and gravel roads! It was the only medicine that would stop the tears because we would get so interested in watching it bubble as it hit the injury. Plus, it didn't sting like alcohol! |
I hear ya! There was nothing a little hyd.per. could not heal
I have even used it to swish my mouth out when I had an ulcer. I think the initial use to "wash" out the wound is ok. Just don't use it after that while the wound is healing. Isn't it funny how things that were written in stone or widely accepted are now being touted as the wrong thing to do? Makes me wonder how we "older"
folks made it this far. HAHA I had a friend that told me her granny used to give her a spoon of kerosine when they had a bad cough. Now it is a wonder she is still living LOL THIS could be a great thread on the NR board.
I have noticed a lot more Tennessee folks lately. I wish I lived close enough to have a play date. Bonnie is lonely being the only child.
