Diane,
There is a silver creme called Silvodene(sp) that is used to prevent scarring in burn victims, so it stands to reason that the CS would do the same. That Dr's attitude is unbelieveable !!!!! Good for you, those kids are lucky to have you around.

Gina,
CS tastes like water. Why wouldn't they drink it? My 6 year old nephew had some kind of virus on his skin that looked like a wart, one on his chin, three on his back shoulder and two behind his ear. I was concerned that it was his head area where this was breaking out. One of the bumps on his back and another behind his ear, got infected looking, with a head that was a hard crust. SIL took him to the docs and she said "It's a virus, leave it alone and it will go away in a year." That week, he got two more bumps. I had to ask my SIL if she was comfortable knowing her gorgeous little boy had a virus on his face and head, near his brain, and the doc wasn't concerned. I got my point across. I sprayed CS on him all day. He thought it was a great game, and I even sprayed it in his mouth and eyes to show him it didn't sting. So, every half hour, he got some CS. The very next day, the infection was gone. So I got an emery board and scratched the tops of the virus and continued to spray his skin and mouth. He was clear in seven days. Every day I had him, three days a week, I sprayed his mouth with CS and it never came back. He takes care of all his boo-boos now with CS, as do his brothers. I got them some ASAP CS gel too. He is the only one of three who didn't get mosquito bites this year. Could the CS possibly been the reason? I also noticed his deeper abrasions were not leaving scars on his legs. Can CS keep your skin from scarring? Diane

    So, I want to give my kids CS.  Both as a preventative and if they
    get some 'bug' as a treatment.  I'm sure they won't drink it
    straight, so is there anything I can mix it with so it won't taste
    bad (to them)?  I know you aren't supposed to mix it with
    anything, but I just don't see them drinking it straight, or even
    diluted in water.

    Any tips would be appreciated!

    Gina
