7 of the Best Effective Home Remedies

..................................................................................................... We are often faced with health conditions which can be cured at home yet we don’t know how to deal appropriately with them. This article provides you with effective home remedies which will save time and money that you spend to go for a physician. Note that the following remedies are for simple conditions, if you have a severe condition head for a physician and avoid remedies that involve substances that you are allergic to. 7. Getting Rid of Dandruff Individuals who have a dandruff problem face a lot of embarrassing situations even though dandruff is neither dangerous nor contagious. Eating a healthy diet and getting some exposure to the sun are recommended to handle dandruff. Tea tree oil is also seen as an effective home remedy when mixing a drop with shampoo and using it regularly. 6. Handling a Stiff Neck The best thing about this home remedy is its simplicity. All you have to do is apply a warm washcloth to your neck and the heat will increase your circulation and loosen the neck muscles.


After that, gradually move your neck forward then to each side and eventually back. Repeat the procedure until the neck loses its stiffness. 5. Relief Toothache Toothaches can be unbearable and sometimes you can’t take a toothache until your appointment with the dentist. That is why you can follow this method to relief the pain until you get a chance to meet with a dentist. Head to the nearest pharmacy and get eugenol, clover oil, and apply a small amount of it with a cotton swap on the pain area to numb the pain. 4. Treating Athlete’s Foot Although catching athlete’s foot condition is easy with the spread of its causing fungus, losing it is difficult. A home remedy to treat this condition consists of soaking your feet for 30 minutes on a daily basis into a foot bath that has finely crushed garlic cloves until your feet lose the fungi. 3. Calming Stomachache There are several home remedies that can effectively treat stomachache. One way to relief stomachache that is caused by gas and to neutralize stomach acids is by mixing baking soda in a glass of water and drinking it. If you prefer not to take antacids for heartburn, then try chewing sugarless gum which forces fluids into your stomach. If you suffer from nausea due to motion sickness you can eat a fresh piece of ginger root to treat it. Ginger tea also warms the body and settles the digestive tract. Finally, a general remedy to upset stomachs is taking 90 of peppermint oil a day. 2. Dealing with Burns A common misconception about healing a burn involves applying ice to a burn. This is wrong because extreme cold can damage skin cells like in the case of frostbite. When you get a burn you can head to a faucet of cool water to prevent the burning from spreading through your tissues. Another effective home remedy for minor burns is soaking the burnt area in whole milk for 15 minutes as the fat content will reduce the pain and encourage healing. 1. Headache The simplest way to relief a headache that everyone can afford is just relaxing and taking a nap. If the pain still persists then you can squeeze particular acupressure spots such as the web between your thumb and forefinger. Another home remedy is applying tiger palm, available in Chinese or health food stores, on your forehead. Trying these methods to get an effective headache relief is better than ingesting over-the-counter pain relievers that may result in other problems.
