How Can I Best Treat A Cut Naturally?

Calming a Cut

A freely bleeding cut that does not require stitches should be disinfected by pouring 3% hydrogen peroxide into the wound. Let it foam up and then repeat and pat dry with a clean cloth or piece of gauze. One folk remedy that works quite well, especially for deep cuts, is to sprinkle goldenseal powder into the cut. Just open a goldenseal capsule to get the powder, which disinfects and encourages the formation of a crusty scab that protects the wound.
