Use of Honey for wounds

According to at least one source, honey can be used for bed sores, rashes and possibly on AIDS lesions. hubpages

How to use honey and the type of honey to use in the treatment of wounds is relatively simple.  Why it works doesn’t appear to be.  Links to references are at the end of each paragraph in this article.

Honey can be used by any able adult to treat minor abrasions, bed sores, burns or blisters.  The application for these minor conditions doesn’t require any specialized skills or knowledge. 

Deeper wounds can benefit from an application of honey but often requires medical skills and knowledge or instruction.  Each open type of wound is often unique to an individual person and situation.  This is why professional medical consultation is recommended.

WARNINGS:

Be aware that if a person is allergic to bee stings, they might not respond well to the application of honey to a wound.   Even if the person can consume honey when they are allergic to bee stings, there is no guarantee they won’t have a serious reaction to an application of honey to a wound.

Additionally, honey taken internally or externally might prove harmful or fatal to children. harmful elements

INSTRUCTIONS:

Instructions on use of honey as a topical treatment for minor injuries revolve around cleaning the area with hydrogen peroxide or soap and water.  This is then followed by an application of warm (not hot) honey.  This application can be made directly on the wound or on the bandaging.  Removal of bandaging each day will be sticky and painful.  generic instructions,   instructions with a specific honey product, wound tyes

TYPE OF HONEY TO USE:

The type of honey (raw or commercially made for the grocer) may affect the effectiveness and speed of recovery.  One source advises the use of gamma-irradiated honey because food honey may contain spores that could be harmful.   Yet, there is belief that honey has been used to treat wounds for over 2,000 years (since honey has been sought out for over 10,000 years and used medicinally for at least 4,000 years, it has been presumably used without the benefit of irradiation). hubpages ,  historical use of honey for healing, wikipedia

The pollen found in honey varies by location of the honey bees and what they are exposed to.  For this reason, it might be best to use honey, which is locally produced.  One is usually already exposed to local pollens. 

Thus, some bees do produce healthier forms of honey as a result of where they collect their pollen from. 

Honey is basically a regurgitated product where the bees add an ingredient of their own before storing it in a cell in their hive.  Bees are like little pharmaceutical companies that provide the raw material that humans transform into useable products.

The safest bet for the type of honey to use seems to be a New Zealand manuka honey.  This is reputed to be a highly potent honey and is used medicinally.     Other reports on safety of use have been listed on a Bastyr University site.   manuka honey, bastyr university

Studies are underway to understand how honey heals.   This includes one German study on how it may aid in cancer treatment.  studies
