Frostbite: Correct Actions in Case of Frostbite

Celery roots with goose fat: to effectively treat frostbitten skin areas, it is recommended to use celery roots, previously boiled in goose fat. This method has a warming effect and promotes rapid healing of damaged skin.

Burdock oil and decoction: natural products based on burdock are used as a powerful analgesic for burns and frostbite, as well as in the treatment of various skin diseases and boils. Burdock effectively combats slow-healing ulcers and wounds. To prepare the decoction, it is recommended to collect burdock roots in September, when they are the juiciest and fleshiest. Avoid using hollow roots without the core. Before preparing the decoction, the roots need to be cleaned of dirt and rough bark, thoroughly rinsed, chopped, and dried in a shady place outdoors. For the decoction, use 4 tablespoons (40-50 grams) of prepared roots, pour 1 liter of boiling water over them, and boil for 30 minutes. The resulting decoction can be used to wash the hair without shampoo. Burdock oil is recommended to be rubbed into the scalp to nourish the hair. To prepare it, fill half a jar with chopped burdock roots and pour sunflower oil to the top. Close the container and leave it in a warm, dark place for a day. Then simmer the mixture over low heat for 15 minutes, strain, and press. Store burdock oil in the refrigerator; it retains its beneficial properties for a long time.
