I use a baking soda (bs) paste for insect stings, so thought maybe a bs paste would work against and heal this thing. I was so happy to read some info from this site and also watch a YT video of a woman who used ba and co for her bcc.

It's not yet been a week. I clean the area with ACV and apply the paste 3-4x/day. Ive thought it strange that cleaning and then applying the paste does not hurt.

Im happy that it seems to be pulling disgusting stuff up over the surface of my skin. I see some tiny amounts of blood. The disgusting stuff is white. The area is circular, about 1/2"?

Id read that others had theirs frozen and such and they came back! So, Im very willing to be patient and ride this out.

The spot is tender and it itches or stings at times, but no big deal, really.

Im very thankful for this site.

Is there a time in the future that I should quit the treatment for a day and let the area rest?.. or just continually keep at it?

Ill figure out how to update this post, as well.

Thank you .
