A poultice is simply a reference to a mixture pack that is placed upon the body. They are commonly wrapped in cheesecloth, but any fine mesh type cloth will work. The mixture contained within varies depending upon the condition being treated. Most will contains herbs or extracts from other plants that contain the desired chemical for treatment of the condition. The mixture may also contain a filler such as clay to increase the volume or to add thickness to a liquid mixture. Corn meal and bread have also been used as fillers, and other fillers are also available.
