Question 1

can you use a drawing salve on your penis?

Accepted Answer

Why: Would you want to do that. Leave your penis alone; otherwise you could void the warranty. If there's a medical problem, discuss it with your doctor.

Question 2

how long do i leave drawing salve on for blackheads?

Accepted Answer

Each Salve is: different. Would need to know more about the salve to be able to answer.

Question 3

used drawing salve prid on boil located on my right buttock . how long until the boil bursts on its own?

Accepted Answer

Boil: Depends on how big the boil is, and how aggressive you are in your treatment. Hot water compresses applied 4 times a day might work better than the drawing salve.

Question 4

can you use a drawing salve such as prid for blackheads to help draw them out?

Accepted Answer

Possibly effective: I don't have experience with Prid, and it is not commonly used in US compared to other countries like UK. Anecdotal reviews support it's effectiveness for acne and other skin conditions and the ingredients appear to be safe and available without Rx.

Question 5

can i use prid drawing salve in my vagina?

Accepted Answer

Perhaps: This is a remedy that has never been tested by the FDA for safety or effectiveness.  Its directions do not cover use on mucus membranes such as the vagina.  It is manufactured by a homeopathic company, so the chances are that the amount of active ingredients in the salve are negligible and you will not harm yourself.  However, there is no data to prove this one way or the other.

Question 6

skin infection on my chest . have put drawing salve on it a couple of times and then was able to get a good amount of puss and fluid but keeps returni?

Accepted Answer

See your doctor: I recommend visiting your doctor as you may need  antibiotics. Wishing you the best.

Question 7

i have a small wood splinter in my finger. its not at the surface as tweezer isnt working. it happened this morning. i placed some prid drawing salve on it.how long should i give it to work before going to the doc? thanks?

Accepted Answer

: If you haven't been able to remove it by now, I recommend proceeding to the ER or urgent care clinic for removal and proper instructions about care following the removal.

Question 8

Accepted Answer

Question 9

what does it mean when your poop looks like tar or drawing salve? i have no money. when i got home about three hours ago my husband was sleeping. he has copd. i put him on his oxygen on level 4. i have been watching him. his head was trembling until about

Accepted Answer

This : This could be due to bleeding in his gastrointestinal tract, infection, or other problem.  I would have him seen by your primary care physician or local emergency room as soon as possible.

Question 10

i have a extremely tiny splinter in my hand. will my body dissolve it if the drawing salve doesnt draw it out?

Accepted Answer

Splinters: Splinters of wood do not dissolve in the hands or the feet; splinters tend to wall themselves and can form small abscesses. Try to soak the hand in warm water with salt and a tablespoon of hydrogen peroxide. See if it loosens it up.  Disinfect a tweezer and try to remove it.  If it is too deep, you may have to see a dermatologist or your primary to remove it.  The body can't dissolve this.
