Bananas

Post by tomsk »

I have a very sore corn on my left foot and heard banana peel is ideal for curing it ... :think:
Well I'm trying it now this very minute and my foot feels soothed straightaway...anyone heard of this before?

Not heard of the banana cure, but apple cider on it is supposed to dissolve it.

I know a gal who claims she uses that vinegar to get rid of warts. I never tried it so that I don't have first hand (or toe) experience.

I think the vinegar works because it is full of acetic acid (CH3COOH). Nobody knows what's in cola.

you know the banana skin works to a degree as the throbbing has stopped but it's still painful to walk on ...
I'll pumice stone it when I have a bath later.

Apparently the banana acts like a topical anesthetic. The vinegar probably will not relieve the pain but will eventually remove the cause of it.
