A Potential Cure for Diabetic Lesions

When you consider that conventional medicine very often fails when it comes to diabetic lesions and the only option left to many diabetics is amputation, I think it’s extremely worthwhile for you to know about as many safe and successful alternatives as possible—particularly those that you can do on your own in the comfort of your home.
Dr. J. B. Dawson, a U.S. physician, shared with me an inexpensive yet effective form of treatment for diabetic lesions that he’s been using for over 20 years.
With leg ulcers, one of the main problems that impede healing is a lack of adequate circulation to the area. A simple massaging technique can restore blood flow to an ulcer and speed the healing process.
Skin ulcerations develop in a circular pattern that resembles a three-layered bull’s eye. At the center of the circle is a red, inflamed area where tissue destruction has taken place—this is the target of the bull’s eye. Just around the outside border of that red center, there is usually pus, surrounded by a rim of swollen tissue, which forms the outer boundary.
To promote healing in the ulcer, Dr. Dawson gently and carefully massages the red center of the ulceration in a circular manner once a day. To block the pain of the massage, he uses a mixture of two percent lidocaine and an antibacterial ointment, found in any drugstore.
This gentle method of massage increases circulation to the infected area. After a few days, Dr. Dawson begins to massage the area more firmly and gradually expands the massage to include the outer rim of the circle.
