How to Heal a Cut Fast

In this video I'm going to show you how to heal a cut fast.

First, you want to wash the cut well and clean it with a dry towel. Then you want to make the salve to place over the cut. Finally, place a bandage over the wound. If you follow these steps, you will see cuts heal quickly.

The three KEY ingredients that help heal a cut fast are tea tree essential oil, lavender essential oil, and raw honey. Tea Tree oil has powerful antibacterial benefits, Lavender has powerful healing abilities, and raw honey has anti-bacterial benefits as well as the consistency to make a paste.

Natural Remedy Recipe:
1 tbsp of raw honey
10-15 drops of tea tree essential oil
10-15 drops of lavender essential oil
Mix well in a tin.

Does anyone else find the word "slice" satisfying and disturbing at the same time?😂

As a nurse I was told that peroxide can damage healthy skin cells. There are honey bandages and honey has been used for many ages for wound healing. Dermatologist recommended cleaning the sight and using Vaseline for faster healing. Basically the same as neosporin. If the wound was already clean enough there's no need for neosporin

I was looking more for like "let it breathe" or "pressure" or "how often to change binding" instead of this magic-based salve mixture

Hello!

Do you suggest to use a mix of olive oil, tea tree & lavender oil to heal an ear with perforated ear drum and other issues puss-like/blood excess issues?

Diet plays a huge roll too. Maximizing your natural testosterone will drastically increase the speed you heal. Keeping the wound clean is a given, body chemistry is just as important though. If you are a skinny person make sure to increase your calorie intake. Also make sure you have fats in your diet no matter what your body type. Most importantly.... SLEEP.... You should be getting atleast 10 hours a night if you are injured. If you feel like you can sleep even more, do it! Sleep is extremely underrated and helps with all aspects of health. If i had a recent surgery sometimes ill sleep 12-14 hours a night for a week straight, and I ALWAYS heal up in faaaar less time than the surgeon expects. Ive actually had 7 major surgeries so ive gotten healing down to a science. My last surgery had an estimated 6 month recovery time because it was cutting into muscle tissue. 30 days after surgery I had my first check up and my surgeon was in disbelief. He had to recheck his charts to make sure i had actually had surgery because he couldn't even tell where the incisions were made. He ended up cancelling all my follow up appointments and telling me I was back at 100%.

I'm a massage therapist and I had 2 ganglioid cyst removed from hand, i need them healed fast. had stitches removed today and the wounds are on the palm side, middle and pointer fingers. I have all ingredients and I am about to try. I have an appointment scheduled for Friday and I hope the cuts are healed by then.

Are honey and the oils good for a deep open wound?

[sylviamach]

Hi Dr. Axe, hereis a tip from Brazil. I use propolis (from bees either), it is a natural antibiotic and antinflamatory, besides it is works like a glue, I use it for small cuts, usually before going to bed, next day it is closed. I also have birds, one of them had a bad foot, so I used propolis with vaselina....fortunatly she is climbing again. I"ll try your tip, it's look great too. Have a great day!

[Psychofriends-vnev]

I sliced off the side/end of my finger. I only have the lavender and raw honey, would that be OK for that deep of a laceration?

[edwardhigh]

Hi Dr Axe, is it a must to have raw honey when I applied lavender n tea trees oil to my surgical cut? I am about to use lavender (to reduce pain) and frankincense (to reduce scars) applying to my surgical cut after the collarbone surgery. The cut is about 15cm

Thank you for addressing my question in advance!!!

[TheTrutherFiles]

triple antibiotic will always be the best imo...put it on real thick ... i basicly cut finger in half to bone.. used a glob off that the skin grew over it so fast .. no need for stitches
