Treatment of edema with birch leaves
|
During edema, our grandmothers sewed knee-sized canvas bags on their feet, filled them with birch leaves and put bags on their legs. The leaves should cover the legs tightly. For five hours, the sick person sat in bags like this, and when the legs began to sweat a lot, the leaves were changed to fresh ones. The swelling goes away if you treat it like this several times. With mild edema in bags, you need to sit for two hours. |
