I used a blank poultice for a nasty skin infection

For 18 months I had a very nasty large marble size infection on my wrist, the doctors thought it may have been from a white tip spider bite but no amount of antibiotic would heal it, I tried many natural remedies with no luck then a friend mentioned using hot or cold presses which I did, first I used a hot water bottle for about 20 minutes with a protective cover over the ugly sight then some two hours later I wrapped ice in a cloth and held it in place for about 20 minutes also, within the first few treatments the large marble sized thing had srunk to half its size I keep using hot and cold for the next few days and it just died. I found out it had been a spore that had got under my skin from mulching the garden,it could not live above or beyond body temperature. I like to tell as many people this story as possible as it has actually saved a guys arm from being cut off above his elbow. Hope it can help someone in need.
