Honey

Try this: Apply warm honey on a smaller cut, and then protect it with gauze – bandage, change it once a day. However, if you burn or wound followed by swelling, fever or pain, consult your doctor because you may need antibiotics.

How it works: When you mix saltwater with a higher concentration of salt in our body, it will extract the liquid from the tissue.
