I don’t need a doctor… just get me the clay!

green clay french

As I sit here typing this entry my big toe is throbbing like a bitch!  I have an infected ingrown toenail and every step I take sends jolts of pain up my foot.  I have just finished a course of antibiotics (for my bone cyst) and it didn’t seem to affect this infection at all.  I was really hoping that it would at least help a little but alas it was not to be.  So my big toe is hot to the touch rock hard and swollen.  I probably should see a doctor but I don’t like the bill that goes along with that so I’ll sit here and try to ignore the pain.  However I am using an old style remedy for infection… clay.  It has well known healing properties so for the next few days I’ll be bandaging my food up with lots of wet green clay mix on it.  I’m also drinking clay with water to quicken this healing process.  No I’m not nuts, at least I don’t think so, I just want to avoid the doctor.  I’ll let you know how I go but if this blog of mine suddenly stops in the next week or so you know things didn’t go too well for me.
