Cracked Feet or Soles

Smelling Feet

Unpleasant Body Odour
Boils

Heat black pepper powder in 1/2 teaspoon Deshi ghee until charred. Use this as an ointment.

Take fenugreek leaf paste, heat it and when lukewarm, apply on the affected part of the body.
- Soak bread in warm milk and sandwich the mixture in between the folds of a clean cotton cloth. Apply this poultice to the boil and hold in place with a cotton bandage. This draws the dirt to the surface of the skin and simultaneously bursts the boil.
