Interesting remedy, but there is a joke here somewhere...

Several have crossed my mind, as I'm sure they have yours, W. Gray, but like you I thought better of committing them to writing.

Probably much to the relief of the ladies.

Indubitably.

I certainly never saw this done, but I know my grandparents, step dad and his father talked about it
as just a known remedy.  Most of the old remedies, strange as they seem, had a basis.  Thank goodness we
have other options today.

Maybe you should go to the doctor.

Marcia, daughter Lynn is just recovering from a brown spider bite that she bout waited too long to go to the doctor.  After the "dead" flesh was cleaned out, she has quite a hole, but it is healing now.  She originally just thought it was a mosquito or tick bite, She showed it to me for my opinion the day of the reunion, and this was several days after the bits.  I took one look and told her to get her butt to the doctor. It was hurting her pretty badly by then and she ended up going to the ER that nite.   Don't put off going to the doctor.

   Marcia, if you mean a brown recluse spider, You MUST see a doctor. It will ulcerate and not heal. You may or may not feel bad from it. Please tell me you went!
