I would just love to see some of these remedies showcased on the Steemit blockchain. I am making an effort to share these things and preserve them so that the skills and knowledge will not be lost for future generations. Is your Grandmother still alive and do you have her procedure for making the turmeric paste and applying it as a plaster?
I think that it would make for a really interesting post. :)

well my grand mother is passed but i gained so much knowledge from her and use of turmeric powder topically i learn from her, the process is so simple we actually buy turmeric powder from shop and then also buy one cotton roll then we cut the piece of the cotton roll according to the patient chest then we spread the turmeric powder on that cut piece of cotton roll then we also put one or two little pieces of onion on that cotton then we put that piece on steel or iron plate and also place some oil in plate before heat so that cotton won't got stick with it as we heat it then we place that plate on stove and heat it little so that it won't burn the skin then we put that cotton piece on to the patient chest then we take a piece of cloth and tie up the cotton piece on the chest so the piece can't move, if we apply that process to little child he or she might feel little irritation initially but as the time pass on the turmeric powder start it's effect and the patient feels really good and go to sleep and the good time to apply this is at bedtime, one main thing to remember in that process is that we have to heat the cotton piece as much so it won't burn the skin. i hope now you learn that process it's pretty simple and easy but extremely effective when someone has extreme cold or flu.
Thank you for sharing this information with everyone!
I still think this should be a separate post for all of us over in North America who are not knowledgable in the arts of making effective herbal plasters.
The next time you make this plaster will you please consider taking photos "step by step" to show how it is done properly with the correct ratio of powder and heat from the stove.
My questions are:
how much turmeric powder do you use?
how long do you heat the cotton plaster on the stove?
Does the turmeric/onion mixture go directly against the patient's bare skin?
Do you use an oil on the skin of the patient's chest first to keep the turmeric from staining?
ok right now in our country there is eid festival and me and my family are on holidays when i reach back to my home i will make a post on it that how we can use turmeric powder topically to remove the chest pain and flu step by step and in that post i also answer your questions. thanks for your interest.
