Saddle sores

[alison_in_oh]

ah. the dreaded zittus butticus. get 'em often. the answer: Jason Tea Tree Gel. It's all natural, and zaps them but (no pun in tended) fast.

HA! Last night in the shower (before reading this) I was trying to decide how best to get that area clean when I looked over at my facial soap: pure castille with essential oils of tea tree and lavender. A-HA! I washed with that. Aired out for a bit. Put a dab of antiseptic but left it open to the air. This morning it's loads better!

(Of course, the other thing I did differently yesterday was NOT go for a bike ride...but for now I'll blame it on the tea tree! )

FWIW, the sores in creases seem different from the usual "butt-ne" which is why I never thought to treat them as such. But so far so good!

LOL - I didn't think of tea tree... we call it manuka and kanuka over here as it grows
Heaps of tea-tree products in the shops here - it didn't occur to me it had travelled overseas...

Manuka Honey, if you have that in your shops too, is great for sore throats - 1 teaspoonfull in the morning - brilliant

Glad your bits are feeling a tad better, Alison
