Comvita Medihoney Antibacterial Wound Gel with Manuka Honey - 25g

I had a (sober) fall and ended up with a facial injury, the doctor at A&E who gave me the stiches recommended this to reduce any scarring, I bought the day after and used it religiously, I was amazed how quickly it sped up the healing process and please with the minimal scarring because of it, even when healed carry on using until all the tube has gone

I've used medical honey before to help heal a surgical wound from abscess removal to great effect. I purchased this due to painful and itchy eczema in my ears that would not respond to anything. After a week of inserting into my ears at night, this honey has gone a long way in restoring my ears to normal. About the product: The honey is very thick and almost grainy. It has a strong, quite cloying smell that prevents me from using it on my face to heal acne. The applicator is wide - so you might struggle to insert the honey directly onto a wound or indeed, in your ear. It comes out in large blobs, so it's easy to dispense a little too much. The good thing about this is that it won't run off when you apply it to skin. To use the honey I squeeze a blob in my hand, and swirl it around with a cotton bud so that the heat of my hand melts it slightly. I then use the cotton bud to put the (now slightly runnier) honey around my ears. This method would also work to use the honey on wounds -but if you're very concerned about germs then consider not heating it in your bare hand unless it is exceptionally clean.

Have used for many years - a tried and tested product

Excellent remedy. Cheers

This stuff is amazing!! Apologies in advance for the graphic detail... I gave birth to my baby boy 10 weeks ago, and unfortunately I suffered a 2nd degree tear and needed a lot of stitches. A few weeks after giving birth some of my stitches came away, causing a small gaping wound at the perineal area. I was so uncomfortable and it always got me down. Anytime I had to go to the toilet I had to use a jug of water to relieve the stinging sensation :-( and it was uncomfortable whenever I had sexual intercourse with my hubby :'( I went for my 6 week postpartum check up at the doctors and they just told me it should heal itself and its very unlikely they will restitch the area. I came away feeling even more upset and disappointed as I felt I was getting fobbed off and they didn't offer a cream or ointment to even help heal the area quicker. It wasn't until I spoke to a friend about it when she recommended I use Manuka honey. She said it works wonders on cuts/grazes, and said I should give it a go. I was initially hesitant to buy the product as I wasn't sure how it would react on a sensitive area, but at that point I was willing to try anything and everything to help me heal quicker. Well, after applying the honey (once a day) within a week I couldn't believe the difference!! The redness had completely gone, and the gap was closing up! I was so happy, I could have cried with joy!! The gel is a godsend, and I highly recommend it to anyone!! Delighted!!
