I am recommending this to someone I know that is plagued with Shingles. I wonder if it is linked to gout as well? Didn't Henry the Eighth have both? Disease of Kings they say.Consumer Reports
Old-fashioned cure for shingles meets the 21st Century;
http://www.NewsAndOpinion.com | DEAR DR. GOTT: My mother contracted shingles many years ago. Being miserably uncomfortable and somewhat horrified, she rushed to her doctor. Since he was German and practiced considerable "old European" medicine, my mother, likewise German, touted his medical acumen.
"Ah," he said, "you have nothing to fear! You have a case of old-fashioned shingles. Now, here is what you do. Apply a light coating of clear fingernail polish over the head of each little blister. Any that don't disappear immediately get a second coat. In effect, the polish suffocates them and they will be gone before you know it!" This remedy cured not only my mother but numerous other patients of his.
With all the hoop-la and money being spent researching shingles, isn't it possible that our 21st-century research is too sophisticated to discover this simple, old-fashioned, homey remedy?
