Copper Plates: For effective treatment of bruises and pain, we recommend using copper plates with a diameter of 1 to 8 cm and a thickness of 1 to 3 mm. Before using the plates, they should be boiled in a saline solution for 5-10 minutes to remove oxides, then thoroughly rinsed under running water. The plate should be applied to the affected area for a duration of 6 hours to 2 days, periodically removing it to clean the skin with soap. Use adhesive tape for fixation, but keep in mind that the plate may shift to more painful areas.

Honey Cake: To make this cake, mix 1 teaspoon of honey and 1 tablespoon of flour to form a dough. It can be attached to the affected area. If relief does not come, replace the dressing with a fresh one.

Compress with Cognac and Salt: This compress is suitable for washing wounds and rubbing. Apply it undiluted. The procedure of rubbing bruises and swellings should be performed 2-4 times a day.

Compresses should be applied to areas with bruises and fractures, keeping them moist. If a plaster cast can be removed for 1-2 hours, it should be taken off after 5-6 days, and the saline mixture should be rubbed into the skin of the limb. Rubbing should be done from the periphery to the heart, after which the limb should be washed and massaged with oil (such as sea buckthorn or lavender) before re-fixing.

For cuts, it is recommended to bind the wound with a piece of cloth moistened in the solution.

Do not remove the bandage until the wound is fully healed, and moisten the bandage from the outside 3-4 times a day.

Preparation of Saline Solution: Fill a bottle 3/4 full with cognac (preferably five-star) and add fine table salt to the level of the cork. Mix the solution, and after the salt settles (approximately after 20-30 minutes), it will be ready for use. Do not shake the bottle during application to avoid salt getting into the wound.

Konykov Ointment: This ointment, consisting of 2/3 honey and 1/3 fish oil, effectively helps in treating burns and bruises due to its antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties. It stimulates healing and cleansing of wounds, especially beneficial for slow-healing injuries.

Vodka for Bruises: Mix vodka with water and freeze it in ice molds. This is an excellent remedy for combating bruises, strains, and contusions.

Apodeldok with Arnica: This homeopathic remedy promotes improved microcirculation and the resorption of bruising. It can be used for rubbing or taken internally three times a day.

Onion Compress: Cut off an onion leaf, rinse it thoroughly, and remove the outer film. Apply the slime to the wound without a compress and secure it with a bandage. Replace the leaf twice a day if it dries quickly.
