Treatments and remedies transcribed from a working Physician's handbook published in the 17th century. Check out the Introduction
Medicines for the Breast. For sore Breats
Take the yolk of an Egg, and fair fresh grease, and sovre fresh dough, and mingle them well together, and make a plaister thereof, and lay it to the sore, and when it is broken do away the dough, and lay it to your Eggs and grease, and it will be whole quickly. Or make a plaister of Smallage, Linseeds, and whites of Eggs, and lay it to the sore Breasts, and this will heal them; or take Claret Wine and Barley Flower, and boil them together thick, and make a plaister thereof and lay it to the Breast: this hath been proved.
