How to Treat a Wound With Gunpowder

Homeopathic gunpowder is still a relatively unexplored alternative medicine development. The remedy, which is composed of nitre, sulphur and charcoal, has been used effectively to treat infected tissue in human and animal test subjects. In the Crimean War, soldiers who suffered a gun shot wound would extract gunpowder from bullets and pack the residue into the wound to prevent infection. Homeopathic gunpowder has been used to treat animals successfully on three reported occasions where the animal did not respond to antibiotics. Gunpowder has been shown to treat septic suppuration, the rashes resulting from ivy and primula, facial herpes and boils. Rather than applying the residue topically, patients take the gunpowder orally.
