Traditional methods of treating lung diseases. Home treatment for various pulmonary diseases. Radish compress

In the human body, nature has arranged everything in such a way that each organ performs a vital function. One of these organs is the human lungs. In their absence, a person simply will not be able to breathe and, therefore, the body will not receive enough oxygen. They are the ones who take on the entire load and belong to the human respiratory system.

From the earliest stages of life, the entire respiratory system is exposed to external factors. This is air pollution or in other words a bad environment. Over time, a lot of bad habits appear, such as smoking. It’s not worth even talking about the harm tobacco can cause to a person.

Types of diseases

Along with all the above factors, there are also congenital pathologies that are transmitted from generation to generation at the genetic level. The most common diseases:

• Pneumonia (pneumonia);
• Lungs' cancer;
• Tuberculosis;
• Emphysema.

1. Pneumonia, or in simple terms, pneumonia can have varying degrees of severity. The main cause of this disease is the streptococcal virus, which appears or remains after illnesses such as influenza, bronchitis, acute respiratory viral infections, and acute respiratory infections. Other causative agents of the disease are bacteria. In this case, a person can get sick at any time of the year.

The symptoms of pneumonia are very similar to a common cold or flu. However, a person should be alert to several signs. Firstly, it is a high temperature (over 38), which lasts more than three days. In children, on the contrary, the temperature may not be too high (no more than 37.5).

The temperature is accompanied by a cough (dry), pain in the chest area. The sick person experiences a loss of strength or simply quickly becomes overtired. Chills appear at times. The presence of all of the above symptoms in combination requires immediate consultation with a doctor. Pneumonia can be cured if you combine treatment prescribed by a doctor with folk remedies.

2. Cancer is caused by the formation of a malignant tumor, which forms from the mucous membranes of the bronchi and lungs. With timely detection of this disease and an integrated approach, it is curable. It can be treated with radiotherapy, chemotherapy and surgery where the affected part is removed.

Symptoms of cancer include: sudden increase in body temperature, constant or periodic weakness, shortness of breath and cough. It is the cough that you should pay attention to. It has a paroxysmal form or begins under the influence of environmental factors. The patient develops sweating and loss of appetite. When coughing up, the sputum has a yellowish, sometimes greenish tint. In more severe cases, the cough is accompanied by sputum with blood, and the blood can have a varied consistency.

3. Tuberculosis is caused by a bacterial bacillus, better known as Koch's bacillus. This is the oldest disease of humanity. The danger of the disease is that at the initial stage it is asymptomatic and develops without showing itself in any way. Like previous ailments, it affects the respiratory system. There are cases when people were cured of tuberculosis using folk remedies.

4. The diagnosis of pulmonary emphysema means that a large number of air bubbles have accumulated in the lung tissue, as a result of which the elasticity of the walls and vessels of the lung tissue is impaired. The main symptom of emphysema is shortness of breath, in which a person does not fully release air. This leads to the lowest oxygen saturation in the blood. It may be hereditary or acquired.

Treatment methods

All of the above types of ailments are treated with medications, but in the aggregate and in order to get the most positive effect, non-traditional methods are also applicable. There is a general recommendation on how to treat various ailments, which is to strengthen the immune system. Oddly enough, if a person's lungs are not in order, doctors regard this as a response from the body that is not strong enough to overcome the disease on its own.

For tuberculosis and pneumonia, doctors necessarily prescribe a course of antibiotics. The duration of the course directly depends on several factors. What stage is the disease at, what causes it, as well as the presence of concomitant myopathies. For emphysema in the initial and second stages, breathing exercises are prescribed. However, it often causes infection. In this case, antibiotics of various groups are also prescribed.

A sick person is prescribed a special diet that puts the least amount of stress on the digestive tract. At the same time, meat products must be present in the diet.

Treatment of diseases with folk remedies

Continuing the conversation about some types of products, it is worth mentioning that this relates more to preventive treatment with folk remedies. These methods are:

• Mustard plasters;
• Honey (propolis);
• Herbal preparations;
• Dairy products;
• Milk;
• Wine berries and much more.

1. If you treat a disease with folk remedies, then it is worth mentioning the panacea that our ancestors resorted to just recently, medical banks. Previously, they were present in almost every home. They are installed for a maximum of fifteen minutes, provided that they are installed by a person who has experience in this matter.

2. Other folk remedies that people have used since ancient times are compresses using honey. All components are taken in equal quantities: honey, vegetable oil and dry mustard. Everything is mixed in a cup, which is placed in a water bath. As the honey melts, flour is gradually added in small portions, and the mixture must be constantly stirred. The result should be a mass slightly thicker than sour cream. Next, put it in a plastic bag and let it warm up the chest, preferably the back too. The duration of use of such a compress depends on the duration of the disease.

There are many recipes where treatment is carried out with folk remedies and where honey is present. Ideally, this is to dissolve natural propolis daily for two weeks. The amount of propolis should not be less than 1 gram and not exceed 3 grams per day. Even in the absence of allergic reactions to bee products, in the first days the amount of propolis should not exceed half a gram.

Oil is made from propolis, which is used internally along with butter. Propolis oil from 10 to 15 percent is considered medicinal. They are mixed in equal proportions and used 1 teaspoon 3 times a day, 2 hours before meals. The mixture is washed down with warm milk. The course of treatment is two months, but you should stop for two weeks. Each subsequent course is increased by 1 teaspoon.

3. If the disease needs to be treated for a long time, then compresses should be alternated. Example, the first day mustard plasters, the second day honey cakes, the third day iodine mesh. There is a small nuance: the grid is drawn with a cell, but the stripes must pass between the ribs. It is in these places that many blood vessels pass. On the fourth day, place medical cups and so on. This also includes a compress made from cottage cheese and whey. It is applied as thick as a finger.

4. Internal pork fat, goose, badger and dog fat are essential attributes when grinding. First, the fat is melted in a water bath. If dog fat is used, the maximum effect can be achieved by consuming dog soup at the same time as rubbing.

5. Any pulmonary disease is almost always accompanied by a cough. It is possible to alleviate the patient’s condition and also help soften sputum using folk remedies. The main method for treating cough is herbal preparations. Particularly good as an expectorant method is a collection of equal quantities of raspberries, coltsfoot leaves, and oregano leaves. All herbs and berries are mixed. The decoction is prepared in this way: one tablespoon of the collection is poured with one glass (200 ml) of boiling water. The mixture is infused for 15 minutes and consumed warm.

6. Sprouted grain in any form of preparation is a folk remedy. You can make a tincture from it or chew it like seeds. The main thing is that the use is constant. Kumis and fish (carp), these are rather strange methods of healing and belong to non-traditional medicine. Many scientists of past times mentioned them in their chronicles.

Cognac in combination with hot milk should be drunk immediately, as the milk will curdle in a few minutes. Milk in combination with hot red pepper will serve as an excellent recipe as an auxiliary method to treat tuberculosis.

Even with such diverse approaches to any ailment, any treatment requires consultation with a doctor. If the disease is serious and protracted, then witchcraft methods will become a lifesaver to medicinal methods.

SAVED RECIPE FROM A COLD
I would like to offer a recipe that my mother used to cure me. In 1951, I fell ill - I had a high fever and found it difficult to breathe. We were taken to the hospital in the city. It turned out: darkening of the right lung up to the fourth rib. I was 14 years old then. They prescribed penicillin and other drugs, but treated it with a prescription that my mother used for colds (she died at the age of 99). This recipe has helped many people in our village.
Take 1 tbsp. a spoonful of birch buds, infused in 0.5-0.7 liters of grape wine for 1 week in a warm place so that the resin comes out of the buds. The buds will become swollen and green.
400 g of honey (forbs, white, slightly yellowish), 200 g of carrot juice, 200 g of aloe juice from fresh, healthy leaves, 200 g of birch bud infusion (prepared in advance). You will get 1 liter of mixture. Leave everything for a day and drink 30 g 3 times a day. This jar is enough for 10 days.
After three days, lethargy disappears and appetite appears. During treatment, instead of brewing tea, use apricots: boil it with honey and drink 1 liter of decoction per day. Preferably fresh milk, fat content 4-5%, or warm cream. Eat 1-2 raw eggs per day. Plus fresh air, walks.
I am now 62 years old, and when the flu comes into the house, we treat it with this mixture.

Video - Lung Diseases

Pneumonia is a serious lung disease. When the first symptoms appear, urgent measures must be taken, otherwise the consequences can be very serious. In addition to drug treatment, there are proven and quite effective folk remedies for pneumonia. If they are taken in combination with the recommendations of doctors, the disease can be cured much faster.

Signs of pneumonia

Pneumonia can begin suddenly and very acutely. The reasons for its occurrence are different: complications after colds, the entry of dangerous microorganisms into the lungs, the consequences of injuries and operations. The first symptoms of pneumonia are similar to signs of a viral infection: a sharp increase in temperature to 38-40 degrees, severe cough, chills, fever, pale skin, weakness. This condition is a reason to immediately seek medical help.

If treatment occurs not in a hospital, but at home, strict bed rest must be observed. It is recommended to drink plenty of fluids. After the strong cough disappears, you can take a warm bath, which helps speed up the process of resorption of infiltrative lesions and improves blood supply to the lungs. It is very important that the air in the room where the patient is located is saturated with oxygen. The room should be ventilated daily to reduce the amount of bacteria released into the air when coughing.

Bed rest and drinking plenty of fluids are mandatory conditions for a speedy recovery from pneumonia

Traditional methods of treatment

Traditional medicine has a wealth of experience in treating pneumonia. At a time when there were no cures for this disease, people saved themselves using folk remedies and treated pneumonia with infusions and decoctions of medicinal herbs, compresses and lotions. The effectiveness of traditional methods is understandable, because natural components contain all the necessary substances and microelements that the patient needs to alleviate the course of the disease and speedy recovery. Treatment with folk remedies should be carried out simultaneously with therapy prescribed by a medical specialist.

Pneumonia is very severe in older people; they suffer from it twice as often as at a young age. The complexity of treatment also lies in the fact that due to various concomitant diseases, not all medications are suitable for them, so folk remedies for the treatment of pneumonia in older people often come to the fore.

Onions and garlic for pneumonia

Among the fairly large number of folk remedies for the treatment of pneumonia, onion- and garlic-based products occupy a special place. These vegetables are of great benefit to a weakened body. They contain special substances - phytoncides, also called herbal antibiotics, they cleanse and strengthen the respiratory system.

Onions and garlic have antimicrobial effects

An excellent remedy for treating pneumonia is onion-milk decoction. Boil two onions in milk (about five minutes), leave for four hours and strain. It should be taken every three hours, one spoonful.

Honey based products

For pulmonary diseases, a warm compress of honey, dry mustard and vodka will help. Take a tablespoon of each ingredient and apply it overnight to the area between the shoulder blades. The second compress is placed on the right side of the chest.

Honey is one of the best remedies for respiratory diseases

You can prepare a decoction of honey and aloe. To do this, you need to mix honey (300 g), ½ glass of water and pre-crushed aloe leaf. Boil the mixture over low heat for two hours. Take one large spoon in the morning, afternoon and evening.

To strengthen the lungs in case of various respiratory diseases, you can prepare a balm from liquid honey (350 g), Cahors (0.5 l) and aloe (250 g). Aloe should not be watered for 2 weeks before picking, and its leaves do not need to be washed, but only wiped. Mix all ingredients, leave for two weeks in a cool place, strain and squeeze. Drink one large spoon 3 times a day.

Tinctures for pneumonia

Not only a very effective, but also a delicious recipe for tincture of birch buds and aloe, can be prepared as follows: mix one glass of honey and Cahors, two glasses of grapes (light), a large spoon of birch buds and an aloe leaf. The mixture should be infused for a week in the dark. Drink 60 g per day.

Aloe juice helps fight lung diseases

Combine the juice from one medium beet, an aloe leaf, a spoonful of pork fat and one glass each of honey and Cahors. Place the mixture on the fire and mix everything well. The infusion process takes 20 days. Drink 40 g per day.

But when treating such a serious disease as pneumonia, it is necessary, first of all, to follow the doctor’s recommendations. Traditional methods of treatment are auxiliary means that increase the effectiveness of the main therapy.

Video: treating pneumonia with home remedies

This is a large group of diseases characterized by an inflammatory process in the lungs. In this case, the entire lung tissue or only part of one lobe of the organ can be affected. The cause is usually a bacterial, viral or fungal infection. Inflammatory fluid and mucous secretions accumulate in the alveoli and air ducts, thus creating stagnation of blood and thickening the lung tissue. All this negatively affects the gas exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide. The disease can be caused by injuries, be a complication of another disease or a consequence of prolonged bed rest, or develop from inhaling air poisoned by chemicals.

There are acute and chronic pneumonia.

Acute pneumonia is characterized by fever, chills, cough, shortness of breath, chest pain, inflammation

There are two forms: transient, or croupous, and protracted - catarrhal.

According to the doctor's definition O. Morozova, lobar inflammation always begins with stunning chills and high fever - up to 40 and above. The urine becomes thick and dark, then a cough and pain in the side appear. At first the cough is dry, and after two or three days sticky, rust-colored sputum appears, sometimes with blood. With the correct course of the disease, after 7-8 days a crisis occurs: the patient falls asleep soundly, during sleep the temperature drops sharply, the patient wakes up sweating, and from that day recovery begins. If the crisis does not occur at a certain time, then the disease becomes chronic or threatens a bad end.

At the first signs of the disease, you should consult a doctor, since pneumonia is a very dangerous disease and, if not treated correctly, can result in death.

Injecting penicillin quickly stops the inflammatory process in the lungs, and the patient recovers.

But if for some reason you have to treat the patient yourself, then you must first take the following measures: cleanse the patient’s stomach with some laxative, place him in a warm, but not hot, room. Give as food broth, milk, but eating beyond desire is harmful. To lower the temperature give water with lemon or cranberry juice. To the very weak and old, give a little to increase strength guilt. Wrap your chest, sides and back with a warm compress of water, changing it twice a day. Give hot orally for expectoration tea, marshmallow root infusion two cups a day or on an empty stomach - half a glass of warm water, in which dilute half a teaspoon of baking soda and a pinch of salt.

If there are powders salicylic soda 0.5 each, then to lower the temperature give one twice a day. It’s good to give something diaphoretic to drink - infusion linden blossom, mint, sage.

With chronic or prolonged inflammation, the lungs are not completely affected, as is the case with acute inflammation, but the affected areas are scattered throughout.

At the very beginning of prolonged inflammation, it is useful to give something hot or warm to drink. milk, letting a drop of purified turpentine.

IN Otherwise, the measures taken for treatment are similar to those used for lobar inflammation.

Doctor O. Morozova, who published a medical book for Russian emigrants, widely used the practice of old zemstvo doctors who did not abuse medications, preferring well-tested remedies. So she advises using the following for pneumonia: folk and home remedies:

1. IN In the very first days of the disease, you should start taking purified sulfur 1/4 teaspoon per day, washed down with water or eaten with semolina porridge. And who lives next to a pine forest, then it is necessary to collect the dripping from the pine trees sulfur(resin), roll it into balls with sugar and swallow it like that. This remedy is very good not only for pneumonia, but also for tuberculosis.

2. To cough up mucus, drink a cup of hot herbal infusion a day. Ivan-da-Marya, otherwise - tricolor violet.

3. A warming compress can be made like this: spread on a cloth soft cottage cheese(a little with serum) into a finger thickness and then proceed as with a regular compress.

4. It is advisable to give the real thing inside Provençal oil.

5. To distract the heat from the chest, wrap your feet to the ankles soaked in water with vinegar with rags(well wrung out), and wrap your feet in something warm on top. When the rags are dry, you need to moisten them again. You can put wet socks on your feet and wrap them in something warm.

6. Place banks on the chest and back for 10-15 minutes.

Famous Russian doctor P. M. Kurennoye offers:

Banks and... "Superbanks"

With pneumonia, the body temperature quickly reaches a high level in a short time. In this case, it may be necessary to place from 30 to 40 cans on the patient’s back, sides (near the back), and sometimes on the chest. 8-10 hours after cupping, the body temperature begins to drop and the patient recovers. Grandfather used “super banks” only for very old patients and in very frail health, the hopes of saving whom with simple banks were very weak.

Grandfather took small (with a capacity of two glasses) clay crusts (with a belly). He heated the Russian stove and, when it was necessary to put bread in the oven for baking, my grandfather laid V bake a sheet of asbestos and coat the top edge of the crusts with a crust of dough. Then he placed the crusts upside down and heated them to the desired temperature. The asbestos and dough crust protected the crusts from excessive heat.

Then the grandfather made very small cuts (up to 10 in number) with a sterilized sharp knife in the place where the “super jar” should be placed. Then he placed the crust on the cuts and... left this peculiar jar for 7-10 minutes. Under the jar there was blood, black as hell, the amount of one-sixteenth of a glass... .

But no matter how attractive the idea of ​​“super jars” may seem, nevertheless, their installation requires enormous experience, skill, adaptability of both the oven and the pots themselves... Mere mortals, and not experienced healers, should better install simple jars. Forty simple cans can simultaneously reduce any temperature. Even a dying patient can recover!

For pulmonary diseases, traditional medicine recommends using the following mixtures:

1. 100 g honey, 100 g butter oils, 100 g lard or goose fat, 15 ml aloe juice, 100 g cocoa heat together without bringing to a boil. Drink twice a day, morning and evening, 1 tablespoon per glass of hot milk.

2. Leaves aloe rinse, chop, squeeze 150 ml of juice, mix with 250 g honey and 350 ml Cahors. Leave for 4-5 days in the dark at a temperature of 4-6 degrees Celsius. Drink 1 tablespoon 3 times a day 30 minutes before meals.

3. Keep cut aloe leaves aged 3-5 years in the dark for 12-14 days at a temperature of 4-8 degrees Celsius (in the refrigerator). Rinse, chop, add boiled water in a ratio of 1:3. Leave to stand for 1-1.5 hours. Squeeze out the juice. Mix 100 ml of juice with 500 g of chopped walnuts nuts and add 300 g of honey. Take 1 tablespoon 3 times a day 30 minutes before meals.

4. Hot infused viburnum berries honey for 6-7 hours, drink and eat for bronchitis, pneumonia and liver disease.

5. For pneumonia and bronchitis, drink an infusion of dried fruits raspberries, sheet coltsfoot and herbs oregano(total equally); 1 tablespoon of the mixture per glass of boiling water, drink warm.

6. In Russian folk medicine, lilac has long been known as a diaphoretic, laxative, expectorant and diuretic, used for malaria, diarrhea, cough, whooping cough, bronchitis, pneumonia, catarrh of the upper respiratory tract, pulmonary tuberculosis, rheumatism, radiculitis, inflammation of the bladder, colds. To prepare the infusion, pour 1 tablespoon of inflorescences with 1 glass of boiling water, leave for an hour, then filter. Drink 1 tablespoon of infusion 3-4 times a day. Vodka tincture is prepared at the rate of 1 part inflorescences to 5 parts water, infusion time - 7 days, strain before use. Take 30 drops 3 times a day.

For pneumonia, traditional medicine advises taking sulfur: purified powder 1/4 teaspoon per day; washed down with water or eaten with semolina porridge. Or collect dripping water in a pine forest resin, Roll small balls of sugar and swallow.

Residual effects after pneumonia are treated paraffin. Paraffin is applied to the affected side of the chest.

Propolis. According to many traditional healers, propolis is a good remedy for the treatment of many diseases, in particular pneumonia and other pulmonary diseases.

Doctors recommend chewing 1-3 g of propolis thoroughly every day, while swallowing saliva. When taking propolis for the first time, caution is necessary, although in very rare cases an allergic reaction may occur. On the first day, it is recommended to chew only 0.3-0.5 g before bed. If the next day no allergic phenomena are noted, then you can begin a systematic course of treatment, which lasts for 4-14 days; if there is a need to continue the course of treatment, then in the second half the dose should be reduced to a quarter of the dose or to half.

Propolis is chewed once a day, always after meals. To avoid irritation of the oral mucosa, after the first 10-15 minutes of chewing, you should take a break for 1-2 hours; Chewing can then be continued until the propolis in the mouth is completely crushed and can be swallowed.

In some cases, with severe chronic and infectious diseases, the daily dose can be increased to 10-20 and even 40-100 g, but such treatment must be carried out under the supervision of a doctor.

Propolis oil can be successfully used in the treatment of pneumonia. In this case, butter is used as a base. 10-15% propolis oil is medicinal. Together with cream, it is taken orally 10-15 g (teaspoon) 2-3 times a day 1-1.5 hours before meals with warm milk. The course of treatment is 2 months with breaks of 2-3 weeks. With each course, the amount of oil increases by 5 g, but not more than 30 g.

In case of pneumonia, at the very beginning of the disease it is useful to place a warm compress on the chest from fresh cottage cheese with whey, placing it on a napkin in a finger-thick layer.

Treatment koumiss- one of the best traditional methods of treating pulmonary diseases. Kumis is a fermented milk product made from fermented mare's milk. At one time, Tolstoy and Chekhov were treated with kumis.

If you don’t have mare’s kumys, it can be made from cow’s milk. To do this, fresh cow's milk (even better, fresh) is diluted with cold water so that for each bottle of milk there are from 1 to 3 bottles of water - thicker than kumiss or thinner. Mix water with milk in an open container and add granulated sugar - 1 tablespoon for each bottle. The more sugar you add, the stronger the kumiss will be. After the sugar has completely dissolved, liquid yeast is poured into the mixture, 1 tablespoon for each bottle. If there is no liquid yeast, then for each bottle you can put 4-6 g of good dry yeast diluted with cold water. Then the mixture is bottled, sealed well, tied and kept for 24 hours at a temperature of 17°C, while the bottles are shaken once an hour.

Mustard treatment

We offer you an effective - in just a week - way to treat these diseases without drugs. I learned about it from casual acquaintances, our compatriots who lived in Bulgaria for a long time. The opportunity to test this recipe in practice presented itself quite soon. My relative complained that she had been treating her 8-year-old daughter with antibiotics for pneumonia for a whole month. I told her what to do, and a week later I found out that the girl had recovered. I have had the opportunity to verify more than once the effectiveness of the “Bulgarian” method of treating both adults and children.

So, here's the recipe. Take 2 tablespoons of dry mustard, flour and vegetable oil, mix everything thoroughly so that not even small grains remain; mustard - otherwise a burn is possible. Dilute the resulting mixture with warm water until the consistency of sour cream. If the mustard is very fresh, “evil”, add not 2, but 3-4 tablespoons of flour. Take a large newspaper and fold it in half crosswise. Attach it to your chest so that the fold line rests against your neck, make indentations in places corresponding to the throat and armpits. Apply a layer of the mixture to one side of the newspaper so that it does not get on the heart area. Cover this area with a cotton cloth folded in four. Now apply the newspaper with the greased side and body, wrapping it around the chest. The fold line should rest against the neck. Wrap yourself in sheets or towels (crosswise and crosswise), put on a sweater and go to bed. In the morning, remove the newspaper with the mixture. This wrap should be done 3 times every other day. For the child, take 2 dessert spoons of the mixture components. For the youngest, before wrapping, the breasts are lubricated with baby cream. If you don’t have dry mustard at home, you can scrape 2 tablespoons from 10 mustard plasters. Contraindications: heart disease, allergy to mustard.

REMEMBER: When wrapping, you should not use materials or clothing that do not allow air to pass through.

Aloe treatment

In the treatment of these diseases, aloe can be used not only as an oral remedy. Compresses with juice also help. 1 part of the plant juice is mixed with 2 parts of honey and 3 parts of vodka. You need to thoroughly moisten a piece of white cloth with this mixture, wrap it around the sore spot, put cotton wool and plastic wrap on top and wrap it tightly with a towel or woolen scarf. The same method can be used for arthritis.

It is also recommended for frequent sore throats to squeeze 20 drops of aloe leaf juice into a glass of boiled water every day and gargle with this remedy for several months. The effect is both therapeutic and preventive.
