Re: Yogurt

[Stephanie]

Actually the Wound doesn't have one bit of yeast to it... According to the MD that the Yogurt will eat the eschar that is present. But I still am going to have to see it to believe it... Just like many of you, I remember the Maalox, MOM,Leeches, maggots,Betadine, Sugar and A&D ointment.  I'll even add a few... We still use Wet to Dry dressings to debride. Use Ban Roll on on Stage 1's to dry the area... But that Placenta treatment is far most the winner hands down for past treatments ever used.   Thanks Stephanie ----- Original Message ----- From: Corey Ali To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, February 28, 2004 6:16 PM Subject: Re: Yogurt There are some places actually using this today, and it still works, sterilized or not.  Not certain about the yougurt treatment, though. ----- Original Message ----- From: Janice To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 26, 2004 7:02 PM Subject: Re: Yogurt When I worked at the University of Iowa we had leaches flown in from a lab in New York to use on a man that had a finger reimplanted and had distal pooling of the blood so they used leaches to bleed the finger until some collateral circulation could be established..It worked!  ----- Original Message ----- From: Teri DeGraw To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 26, 2004 12:07 PM Subject: RE: Yogurt Don't laugh!  I heard on the news the other day that they are bringing back the use of "sterilized maggots" for treatment of necrotic tissue!  ICK!!!  Hate to be the treatment nurse that day!! -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 26, 2004 12:04 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Yogurt Sugar and an oxygen mask over the wound Also maggots for necrotic tissue.
