Guest guest Posted January 18, 2004 Report Share Posted January 18, 2004 Does anyone have experience with, or able to recommend a good external formula or sources, for a person who had his hand burned from an electrical accident. The burned flesh has already been peeled off for the most part, so the emphasis would be on regenerating new flesh, and promoting healing, preventing scarring, etc. Sorry, I dont know much else about the guys' signs and symptoms as of yet, although he seems quite healthy otherwise.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2004 Report Share Posted January 18, 2004 There is a wonderful 'patent' herbal ointment available in all Chinatowns and through ITM(Inst. for Traditional Medicine) in Portland, OR....see www.itmonline.com. It is called Jing Wan Hung. Best used as close as possible to the time of injury, but i have found that whenever the application is begun it seems to accelerate the healing process. It's cheap, too. Seems to be applicable to all types of burns. Even sunburn. Red ointment may be staining, so protect from valued clothing. Hope you can find it.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2004 Report Share Posted January 18, 2004 There's a topical ointment in China that has Huang Qi in it that I heard about for generating flesh, but I've never seen it here. You might want to check out the Manual of Dermatology for topicals. I think you're going to have to make your own. There's a new derm book coming out too, but I haven't seen it yet.

Guest guest Posted January 23, 2004 Report Share Posted January 23, 2004 Spring Wind makes a burn creme. I haven't used it for burns, but have had success using it on cracked, dry feet. It clears heat and promotes generation of tissue. Price is reasonable also.

Guest guest Posted January 31, 2004 Report Share Posted January 31, 2004 Greetings, I have been delayed in reading my posts, but wanted to add an anecdotal incident about burn ointment - jing wan hung. . .my friend was going in for radiation tx. after a lumpectomy/breast cancer and used the ointment on her skin prior to the tx. She did not burn from the radiation txs, except in the area that she forgot to put the ointment. SHe did not realize that they were radiating in a certain spot and she burned in that area only - not in any of the more sensitive areas. ONe needs to be careful to advise patients (undergoing radiation txs.) when putting it on however as the area needs to be cleaned just prior to the radiation. I advised pts. to put it on 30 minutes prior and then wipe it off just before having the tx. This seemed to be ok with the radiation docs that I worked with.

I have actually wandered about this but never had a chance to discuss this. Alon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
