For years I had a persistent condition on the skin of my shin that no doctor could successfully treat. Eventually the symptoms worsened, including the formation of blisters (which, alarmingly, is a symptom of gangrene!). Some mornings I would wake up to find the area warm to the touch, and a very disturbing indentation in the flesh of my shin.
In desperation I ordered a jar of manuka honey from a vendor in New Zealand (having heard about it somewhere), and applied it for a couple of days over the skin.
Within a few days the symptoms abated, and today I have only a slight discoloration of the skin as a reminder of that scary multi-year episode.
Hopefully my experience will be of benefit to someone else.
How did you do it? Clean it daily, then apply the honey under a dressing?
