SKIN DISORDERS: SOLAR KERATOSIS AND SUNBURN

Solar Keratosis

I received the following letter from M.B.B .

“… solar keratosis covering a large area, raised red painful areas across my forehead at the hair line and on my nose, requiring frequent bum freezing by local GP. Using the treatment I started to cleanse my skin with papaya facial cleanser followed by an application of papaya ointment. This treatment has reduced the problem significantly, so much so that the painful bum freezing treatment has not been required for some considerable time, in fact since I first started using the papaya ointment.”

Sunburn

Urine: wash the affected area with urine, also apply before exposure.

Foods: buttermilk, cucumbers, raw egg yolk, honey mixed with equal parts of wheatgerm oil, kefir, milk, olive oil, yoghurt, diluted vinegar or kombucha,

Herbs: aloe-vera gel, dry comfrey root tea mixed with water to make a paste.

Essential oils: bergamot, geranium, lavender, peppermint, eucalyptus, chamomile

Cold pressed oils: sesame seed oil is a natural sun filter, and has a cooling affect on sunburn.
