Coconut Oil and infections
I have a nasty blister that opened and has become infected. It never gets a chance to heal as I got it from my Zoomer fins that I use for swimming almost every day. This morning, before swimming I put coconut oil on the sore. I can't believe I didn't think to use coconut oil sooner as it:
- should heal the sore
- will help lube up my skin so that the flipper doesn't rub me so much
I almost forgot about the healing benefits of coconut oil until it seemed that the sore would not heal. I can not wait until tomorrow morning. I am certain the coconut oil will semi heal and entirely remove the pain from this very painful sore.
Tonight I am going to try coconut oil on my ingrown toenail!
