I can't remember the thread or who posted the little note about using raw honey for burns but I want to thank you! 
Burned myself on two fingers last night while putting wood in the stove...I mean charred! They were black with large white blisters forming underneath and very painful. Since they were on my forefinger and thumb and I had to work the next day....I decided on the honey cure.
Upon applying the honey, the pain stopped immediately! I covered the areas with large band-aids after the honey application and went to bed.
This morning? No pain. Took of the bandages and found no honey residue or stickiness and the blisters were gone. No surface tenderness, no redness....just a shiney place where the blisters had been. No numbness on the surface, no tenderness of the surrounding tissue.
LOVE THIS remedy!!!!
I just heard on the radio that scientists were finding the healing properties of honey to be quite amazing in the area of wound care. They discovered it has natural antibiotic, antifungal, anti-inflammatory properties and that it is the only food substance that cannot and does not spoil.
I'm going to see if the nurses at the local nursing home will try this out and see how it goes.
