Lining of an Egg Shell for Boils
Sandy (Round Lake, IL) on 03/20/2008:
I recently had a boil (ailment) and was experiencing difficulty getting it to come to a head. My daughter-in-law researched your site and was able to give me some suggestions to assist in my plight. She gave me several remedies. I chose to use the skin of an egg and lined it with a tumeric paste ((few drops of water & tumeric)(remedy). I applied it to the boil and covered it with a bandaid overnight. In the morning it had come to a head and I was able to extract the core. I then covered the area with an antibiotic ointment and a bandaid. It worked fine!!! Thanks so much for your information.

egg liner -- brought a boil to a head and at other times it made them go away.

My mother in-law told us about putting the film on the inside of the egg shell on a boil and it would draw it out to a head. Crack open an egg, empty it and the white/clear film on the inside of the shell is what you put on the boil and leave there.
