Re: Home remedy for cysts/abscesses
I was ready for a cure once my Ob Gyn identified the lump I found while bathing. He assured me, if it grew larger he could lance the cyst, put in a drain tube, and the cyst would be no more. Well, I started searching for a cure on Dec 5, 2012.
Which brought me to your post Phoebe, and by this time I WAS IN PAIN AND READY TO TRY ANYTHING ONCE. Well, last night I bought the clamine and witch hazel.
I took a 30 min sitz soak, in very warm water. I mixed the calamine and witch hazel. I forgot the tea tree oil, but decided to use vaseline. I soaked cotton in the mixture and compressed the cyst for 30 minutes. I was in soooo much pain I decided to warm a small, moist, towel inside a sandwich bag and heated it in the microwave to a temp I could stand. I covered the cyst with another towel to prevent scalding my skin. I placed the heated towel in the area until the heat, or the tylenol stopped the pain.
Well today I am pleased to tell you, 12hrs later, your cure for this wretchedness burst the cyst. To those who are still suffering, I HOPE YOU TOO FIND A CURE. . .
