Honey
Honey is one of the most useful skin-treating natural extracts. For centuries, it’s been proven to heal wounds faster and prevents scarring on average skin cuts. What’s good about honey is the thin protective layer it can be for injury when applied directly as treatment.
When a boil bursts and becomes an open wound, putting on honey as topical treatment seeps into the wound and functions as an antibacterial covering that reduces inflammation and disinfects the affected area. In addition, honey reduces odors that would make the wound smell bad when pus starts to come out. Amazingly, honey has anti-aging qualities that make the skin look soft and clear, so that, when the wound heals, it restores the glow and would appear as if nothing happened to the skin.
To effectively use honey on boils, apply a liberal amount of honey directly on the boil. Cover the wound lightly and put a honey dressing pad as a gauze. Leave it for three to five hours, or opt for an overnight dressing for better results. Repeat at least once daily for faster treatment.
