Blackcurrant tea— hot water with a couple of spoons of home made blackcurrant jam dissolved in it —- magic cure .
An Aspirin dissolved in warm water used as a gargle really gets to the pain in throat infections ,no need to swallow it .
A boiled onion ,still hot in a clean cloth on an abscess seems to
“ draw “ out the awful gunge and hence hastens the healing.
Old fashioned remedies ,cost nothing and did the trick very often.
Pre NHS we had nothing else.
Salty water is a good cleanser for wounds .
Clove oil for toothache.
