Re: CSStopping bleeding
I use cayenne powder on my cuts and scrapes. I have used it many, many times on my dogs when they get into a scrap. It produces an immediate scab, which is very tough. One of my guys got a cut on his ear about half an inch long. The cayenne stopped the bleeding and the scab was so that I could press the ear back together. You can't tell where the tear was at all now. It also sterilizes the would. I understand in the old west that those unlucky enough to be shot pressed the pepper powder into the wound, to stop bleeding and sterilize it. Most of this from Dr. Schultze. But I use it extensively. - Original Message - From: wwen...@aol.com To: silver-list@eskimo.com Sent: Sunday, December 14, 2003 8:43 PM Subject: Re: CSStopping bleeding List, It's said, though I have no personal experience with it, that cayenne will stop bleeding, as will yarrow leaves packed into a wound in the woods Jules -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.

Re: CSStopping bleeding
Seems almost too obvious to mention, but there is a very good suction pump tool widely available in camping stores. It is for snake bites, spider bites, and bee stings, and seems quite well made and reliable. It is less than 20 bucks. Seems a good thing to have on hand. . . though I know also that using electricity works wonders on mosquitoes bites in my experience. Check REI for the suction tool.

CSStopping bleeding
What we now know as powdered sugar was used during the civil war to stop bleeding (amputions - legs, arms, hands, gunshots etc.) and to prevent infections. I keep a small jar full of it when I am chopping onions etc. and my finger gets in the way. Works quite well - now to figure out how to keep my fingers from interferring with the knife. CU - Marjie ...I always burned my warts with a soldering iron, then cut them out, before discovering CS. I have found that a styptic pencil can work quite well to stop the bleeding without creating too much additional dead tissue. Shudder As long as we're talking about styptic pencils and wounds, I discovered that plain SALT can stop bleeding as well. Just place it on the wound and let it dry.

Re: CSStopping bleeding
flour and cornstarch work as well..We used flour when our weimeraner cut an artery in his foot and we were 60 miles from a vet. Worked quite well. C.

Re: CSStopping bleeding
Hi Wayne: I believe that you are correct. New wounds should be allowed to bleed, WITHIN REASON, as this is a cleansing process. The only problem occurs when a wound will not stop, and cayenne is indeed a very powerful substance!
