Need Help Recovering From Open MRSA Wound

Posted by Rory (Lancaster, Pa) on 12/10/2016

Need help for open mrsa wound. On outer little toe. Can't do any antibiotics but have been putting manuka honey on wound. Taking high dosage of quality garlic, turmeric, colloidal silver. MRI showed infection got in bone but couldn't do the protocol and left to my usual natural cures. Diagnosed in August and had it nearly healed but cold weather makes it hard to keep shoe off foot. Now it looks worse - how does one sit forever with shoe off? - and today a new spot began beneath dime size wound. I had thought a shoe rubbed blister and popped it. Mistake. Got a spider bite looking infection on finger that never reached boil stage though quite big and that is totally gone. So something is working in my body. Foot no longer swollen. Wrap toe 100%. I think it rubbed larger just from wearing shoes.

But again - I can't remain off toe and the wound is at spot that rubbing will happen. But I am freaked that wound doubled in size this week. Had broken heel on same foot and walked on it for years without knowing and now wearing a pressure sock seems to make worse. Also used ACV, and make Baking Soda packs to try and pull infection out.

Any ideas appreciated.

Rory, you can try Clay poultices or Charcoal ones as per Mama to Many.

For open MRSA wound:

White onion layers warmed up in the microwave (from Earthclinic remedies).

Rrine therapy (maybe making a 8% Urea solution).

Check out the mrsa forum usa website, "garlic and staph" strand: http://www.mrsa-forum-usa.com/index.asp?forumID=16059. This particular portion of the site contains a wealth of information about using garlic water soaks to fight mrsa infections along with an explanation of how and why the remedy works. It took me a long time to read all the posts (scanned some) but I felt it was worth the time.

Manuka honey sounds like a very smart choice to me.

If I were you, I think I might also try iodine or, to reduce its harshness, iodine mixed with coconut oil. (You can experiment with the dilution.) And if you don't mind smelling like a pizzeria, there's also oil of oregano or oil of oregano mixed with coconut oil.

One more option... Keeping it wrapped in something soaked with colloidal (actually ionic) silver. However, be aware that colloidal silver stains. And if there's a way to remove its stains, I don't know what it is. (I would also drink it.) To make it affordable, I would get a good colloidal silver generator. For the money, my favorite is the least expensive one from SilverGen.
