To all interested list members:
A possible point of interest for persons experimenting with
the treatment
of persistant/resistant venous stasis type ulcerations......of the
extremities.
Members of our research staff have confirmed that in an
appreciable number of evaluations involving honey as a component of the
treatment protocol (particularly, those exhibiting pronounced nerve tissue
exposure), honey does, in fact, reduce the effectivity (by time) of most all
of the topical anesthetics; e.g. benzocaine, procaine, lidocaine, etc.
Most of these cases required the direct application of these type agents for
pain management.......every three hours, on average. Generally, honey
applied immediately after pain control was achieved (average time for pain
subsidence following anesthetic was 5 minutes), the relief time---before the
return of intractable pain---was reduced from 3 hours to 2 hours.
Several theories addressing this phenomena have been advanced.
The most plausible seems to be that the enzyme fractions in the honey are
actively reducing the anesthetic agents to a considerable degree.
Colloidal silver compounds did not cause deleterious effects upon
the anesthetic agents.
A compromise protocol did, in fact, provide some advantages to
the "layering system" originally instigated. This modification involved the
dilution of the parent honey solution with approximately 10% (by volume) of
2% Lidocaine....and mixing very well, prior to topical application to the
ulcer surface. This protocol extended the pain-tolerance period to near the
original 3 hour period. Sincerely, Brooks
