I know it works well directly after the burn happens. We keep a plant around for that purpose. Heidi Schuppenhauer Trillium Custom Software Inc. heidis@...

Guest guest Posted June 6, 2002 Report Share Posted June 6, 2002 Eat lots of raw meat and butter. Scarring can occur when there is insufficient high quality protein for repair of the wound. Butter will assist metabolism of the meat for tissure repair rather than fuel. Butter will also provide the necessary lipids for the new cell membranes.

Guest guest Posted June 6, 2002 Report Share Posted June 6, 2002 The vitamin E... or the raw honey....do these need to be applied immediately after th eburn occurs in order to be effective? This burn is about 13 days old, the scab has already fallen off and now it is just pink and shiny. Sonja Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
