Medihoney

I mentioned burning my fingers on my previous post. The first thing I did after taking the picture of the food was to run my fingers under cool water . . . mostly because the faucet was right there, and it felt like the right thing to do. 

The next thing I did was to dab on some Medihoney gel. Not sure if it was the gel or just the superficial nature of the injury, but BAM the pain went away, and in no time even the redness disappeared. 

I heard about Medihoney from my friend Susie who said that she uses it on her mom's bedsores. She said that it aids in healing. 

I got it from Amazon. You can check it out here. This tiny tube was $7.05. There is an expiration date embossed on the edge . . . mine is 05/2018. 



Here's the product description on Amazon:
