Will Epsom salts on a compress draw out infection?

Epsom salts, like most salts, has the effect of being a desiccant, or water absorber. When the Epsom is dissolved in water, the salinity of the water increases. And when it exceeds the salinity of the bacterium, it will osmotically draw water out of the bacterium, thus desiccating it. As such, this makes a slightly undesirable habitat for the bacteria. Epsom salts won't actually draw out infection, nor is it a very good antiseptic.


Can I use epsom salts as a wash for my cats eyes?

As children whenever we had conjunctivitis mother mixed up Epsom Salts in tepid water to bath our eyes. I have used this eye wash on my dogs when they have had sore eyes. I use pre-boiled water that has cooled then add ½ teaspoon Epsom salts to 1 cup water. I then drizzle the wash over the eyeball. You must be very careful to make sure the water is of good quality and is sterile by boiling it and then letting it cool. Alternatively make a saline mix using normal table salt at the rate of 1 teaspoon to 1 litre of boiled, cooled water to fluch the eye.

What is a homemade recipe to get rid of red bumps after shaving your genital region?

Genital hair is there for a very good reason (to protect against bacteria) but there are reasons you might need to shave the hair off. Get "Epsom Salts" from your local drug store. It's always on the shelf and if you can't find it just ask for it. Epsom Salts is used for sore muscles and is great for sunburns and irritations of the skin. Pour 1/2 to 1 cup of Epsom Salts into a little boiling water, just enough to melt the salts and pour it into your bath water. DO NOT USE BUBBLE BATH! Then lay in it for 15 - 20 minutes and enjoy! One time should do it, but if it doesn't do it, try a couple of times. Epsom Salts was used by men in the steel mill for drawing out steel slivers, has many other useful purposes, and it is good to always have around your home. You could also try a warm compress with antibacterial soap 3 times a day, or us hair conditioner to lubricate the area before and after shaving. The hair in that region curls and has sharp edges from the razor. This causes irritation and bumps.

How is Epsom salt on cuts or soars?

I use them all the time. I have Fibromyalgia so chronic pain is something I have to live with. I use the Hydrogen Peroxide and Epsom salts to get rid of my pain. Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2) is basically water with an extra molecule of oxygen. When you take a 'Hot bath' your pores are open the Hydrogen Peroxide goes straight to the muscle. Oxygen makes the muscle relax. Epsom salts are high in minerals. calcium is a known pain reliever for muscles. Try it.. it doesn't hurt at all. I take them weekly. I've never had it sting in any way but. Epsom salt is used often in your bath salts that you buy from any store. all it is is mineral salts. If bath salts don't sting then Epsom salt won't sting. Unless you have a pretty badly infected cut. and then the sting is really beneficial. it means it's working in killing the infection.. I can't imagine a bath of hydrogen peroxide and Epsom salt being at ALL a good thing. If you have any cuts or sores, it will burn like mad. I just don't see the benefit to bathing in this mix. Please think twice.
