CALENDULA tea for some skin conditions.

For skin irritations and burns, try something topical.

Call around to health stores, ask if they have "dried CALENDULA flowers" They may label them "marigold."

There is a cream available, but expensive and not as good as the "tea" from the dried flowers.

It is the marigold family, but the ones to get have a CENTER, this is Calendula. Single edge of Yellow petals with darker centers. It is very inexpensive. Get two fistfulls.

Make a dark tea with it. Bring water to boil and turn off. Place one fistfull in 2 qts of the hot water and bring back to boil, turn off, cover and let cool.

You will have to get a piece of thin cloth to strain this. Just throw it all away, much too hard to dump out and wash cloth etc.

After bathing, use a soft cloth or large piece of cotton OR a little spray bottle to spritz this liquid over your legs or any other parts. (rub around gently) Let it dry. It will not stain. You may also drink this tea. Completely safe.

This is an excellent "tea" for severe burns and many skin outbreaks.

Blessings, Sabra

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Calendula is available in mother tincture form,which is excellent for abraded,cut skin.Just add 5 to 6 drops of mother tincture,in a glass of water,and swab the affected area with a clean cloth.

My grand daughter had a bad fall,and the skin got abraded on the knee,so much that it is a bloody mess.The calendula treatment,without any further medication,brought such a relief by the next day morning,that she started running and playing again.

The Calendula tea does not have any alcohol in it and I do not avocate water or alcohol on burns and such.

Calendula tea also draws together small cuts not needing stitches.
