Thought you might like to read today's application of DMSO & CS which I keep in 
the cupboard but don't often need to use.

My husband is 95 in 3 weeks, he is diabetic, limited mobility but otherwise 
strong as an ox.  I apply pressure stocking to his lower legs to contain lower 
leg oedema.  This morning he tells me his right great toe is "dangerously 
infected and could kill him"  I take this that the toe is sore.

I give him a dose of homeopathic Apis 30c and then after 5 minutes a 300mL 
glass of water with a splosh of CS in to drink.

His feet are always swollen and I observed that the toe was red and a little 
swollen but not much hotter than the rest of the foot. While looking for the 
DMSO in the cupboard I soak the foot in a large bucket of hot water with a cup 
of Epsom's Salts - for around 15 minutes.

I give him a 100mL drink of cherry juice.

Dry the foot gently, apply the DMSO on some clean cotton gauze, apply a little 
colloidal silver, wrap the toe up in more gauze and apply a cotton, non 
pressure, sock.

He is now working on the pc an hour later:  "how's the toe dear" I ask him

"Nothing wrong with it!" - he looks puzzled ("What is that woman talking about")

I gave the Apis for red & swollen & slightly hot, I gave the cherry juice in 
case it was gout rather than a localized infection, applied the DMSO to reduce 
the inflammation & the CS in case it was an ingrowing toe nail infection - the 
great toe nails are fairly thick & difficult to cut & sometimes difficult to 
gauge if they are ingrown or not - this right toe nail was ripped off some 
years ago when he fell - but grew back without completely coming off.  The 
Epsom's Salts soak was a general detox and to soften up the skin & increase 
absorbency & pain relief.

I shall do the same again tonight and anticipate all will be back to whatever 
"normal" is for him by tomorrow.  DMSO is excellent in situations like this.  
So is colloidal silver.
