September 25, 2019, hair dryer cures stubborn infections
Recently, I used my handy little hair dryer to cure my inflamed ear lobs.
I had not worn earrings for a really long time and my pierced ears had begun to close up. I forced the cute turtle earrings my grandsons got for me at a state park gift shop into the very tight holes. The posts are stainless steel and I should not have used them as the instruments to open my ear holes. But I did not have a pair of sterling silver that I wanted to wear. Sterling silver is antibacterial and helps ears to heal.
My ear lobes became very red and swollen. I thought they would heal if left alone. I was wrong. I was forced to remove the adorable enameled, and very heavy, turtles, and carefully insert earrings with silver wires. My ears improved, but they hurt a lot, especially when I rolled over on one in bed. Then I remembered what I had done in the past - use the hair dryer. Heat is the quickest and best way to kill microbes. That is why our bodies produces a fever. It also relieves pain.
I have used the hair dryer in the past to hasten the healing of sore throats and scratches. Of course, with the sore throat I also wrap a long scarf around my head and neck and dress warmly to maintain body heat and I only drink hot beverages. It works really fast.
Yesterday my lobes were very painful to touch. Today the left one is about 95% healed and the right one is about 80% healed. I can pinch both and they barely hurt. By tomorrow, if I keep up the hair dryer, they will both be totally healed.
I know so many people that drink cold drinks to sooth a sore throat. I tell them to drink hot beverages instead and wrap their throat but they do not believe me. And yet they believe a fever kills germs. Actually, I think some of them do not know that the purpose of a fever is to kill germs. And yet heat does kills. Get a person hot enough and he will die. It is called heat stroke.
The great thing about heat is it is not a drug with side effect and you have total control over it. You do not have to get the injury painfully or even uncomfortably hot, just a few degrees above normal skin temperature, about like being in the summer sun.
I use a tiny travel hair dryer my son and his wife gave me one Christmas. It is awesome. Get one. You do not need that industrial model.
One more thing on sore throats, get some chewable vitamin C's and suck on one. Vitamin C kills germs, so does acid, vitamin C is a mild acid. Do this sparingly, even mild acids disolve tooth enamel. Put an egg in a glass and cover the egg with vinegar or pickle juice. After a day or two, you can take that egg out and boil it. Handle it carefully, it will not have a shell, only the membrane.
Heat and vitamin C works better, in most cases, than antibiotics. Antobiotics kill the microbes in your degestive tract that digest your food for you and they take a really long time to return. Too often they are dead for good.
