Guest guest Posted January 15, 2006 Report Share Posted January 15, 2006 Got any castor oil?? Try a castor oil pack on the chest and/or later on upper back. Start taking your garlic cloves if it is respitory, even super tonic, Pleurisy root (butterfly weed) is good also (but not if you are still breastfeeding) Marshmallow Root or Mullein are used for similar conditions, which I would go with if you're still breastfeeding Believed to be helpful for pleurisy (the inflammation of the lining surrounding the lungs) and its accompanying symptoms Relieves lung and bronchial congestion Helps to remove mucous congestion from the chest and respiratory system Acts as a lung tonic Effective for respiratory infections Contains key flavonoids such as rutin and quercitin. Got any ecalyptus? add tea tree to it in some very hot water and breathe in the steam. Suzirainbowegret <egret.09@...> wrote: >> Hi , sorry been gone...> Could you have a broken rib?? Pleurisy? Brohchitis? Asthma? All have these signs.> SuziHi SuziI am asthmatic but I don't think it is that. I haven't had much of any sign of a cold but I am a bit blocked in the nose, have a tight cough and my ears are a bit fluidy.I was thinking Pleurisy too cause last night I was in so much pain in my chest and back when breathing. Still like it now can only breath really shallow. Pain is now only on the left side of my back but my chest hurts when I breathe. Have been going a hot and cold a bit too so must have a slight temperature.Tracey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 20, 2006 Report Share Posted January 20, 2006 Well, it could be a cracked rib ... I think it is good you go see what it is since it is not improving. rainbowegret <egret.09@...> wrote: I've been taking my garlic cloves, lemon juice in water, cayenne pepper (just a little too hot for me) and horsradish tincture I have.It has been 5 days and I still feel tight in the chest a bit and I still have a pain in my back when I breathe deep. I can't lay on my left side because it hurts too much.Made an appointment with the doctor later don't like going to doctors but I want to find out what it is so I can treat it better.

DO THIS WITHOUT BURNING YOURSELF HOWEVER. Try to breathe those fumes as deep into your lungs as you can. DO NOT EAT ANYTHING THAT IS MUCUS FORMING: NO BREAD, MEAT, DAIRY, GRAINS, ETC. For the time being just stick to raw fruits and vegetables. Do a mini water fast of 4 days maybe or even 7 days. In other words, give your body a bit of a rest. I know that is tough with all those childs running round. ;-) -- Peace be with you, Tracey.

However, you can do a mini-juice cleanse of 3 days. I wouldn't do more. Hmmm...got any Eucalyptus trees around your neck of the woods anywhere? Got any Eucalyptus oil? Lemon oil? Drink lots of water with freshly squeezed lemon juice added. That will help as well. -- Peace be with you, Tracey.
