Hi Belinda, you poor thing! I'm not sure if you use essential oils (I'm a bit of a oil queen). But you could try clove, thyme, oregano, tea tree, melaleuca ericifolia, manuka, cassia & cinnamon bark. If you get them through young living essential oils they have some blends call purification, melrose, exodusII and Theives. Dilute 50-50 and apply 2-3 drops on the boils 3-6 times daily.
You sound like you could be a bit run down too, i'd recommend seeing a naturopath and also taking some acidophils (?sp) after the antibiotics. I never realized you had another baby...congratulations!! Love, Rachael ----- Original Message ----- From: Belinda Pound To: ozmidwifery@acegraphics.com.au Sent: Tuesday, February 13, 2007 4:51 PM Just wondering if anyone has any ideas on treating boils. Started about 18/40 (second pregnancy..none with first). Glucose at 28/40 fine. Drs said it was due to pregnancy. Had several courses of oral ab's, two treatments of bactroban nasally. (partner and 2yo daughter also treated with nasal ab at this time). Bath in detol/phisohex. Baby now 11 weeks, breastfeeding, and I currently have four boils. All have been on the right hand side of body. Take pregnancy and breastfeeding vitamin daily. (have had 15-20 in past 6 months.and don't want yet another dose of ab's) Any suggestions on experience/treatment greatly appreciated. Thanks Belinda __________ NOD32 1.1725 (20060825) Information __________ This message was checked by NOD32 antivirus system. http://www.eset.com
