WOO rectally?

in my opinion, that has to be the worst idea i've ever heard. oregano oil BURNS. i have a feeling it would be like sticking a hot pepper up your butthole.

tea tree oil also has burning sensation.

i would not stick either of those on an abscess.

As I stated; diluted with olive oil.

It works... Quite well I might add. Not painful at all. Took me a while to get up the nerve though. Best decision I have made in a long time.

I've screwed around with WOO and Clove/Cinnamon Oils for a while now. I have a complex fistula in that region that acts up when I get intense D. I thought what the heck might as well try. Closed the sucker up in about 3 days.

I'm trying to think what I mixed... I made a concoction:

5 drops WOO
2 Drops Cinnamon (I think)
2 Drops Clove (I think)
A teaspoon and a bit of coconut oil (Medium Chain oils have a strong antibacterial effect)
1/2 teaspoon of honey (these sugars prevent bacteria from growing)
1/4 teaspoon Olive Oil

Anyway - the logic being the coconut oil acts as a thickener, the WOO and other oils do the direct killing and honey binds and sticks everything together and help it stick and retain in you.

Seriously for fistulas - It worked like a charm. Can't see why it would't work for your purpose as well.

Just get a standard disposable enema bottle from Shopper Drug Mart, pre-mix your stuff up and pour it in. The run the bottle under hot tap water for a few seconds and away you go. Easy as pie.

Next time it open for one reason or another this will be my go to.

Side note: Same recipe works awesome for cuts and stuff when rubbed on a bandage.

EDIT: Maybe start with half the WOO/oils and work up in dose just to be sure... You can always do it again with more the next time once you're comfortable with it. Probably the best approach. Also you can always add more oils and dilute. Maybe another approach. Just start small and work up to ensure no burning sensation.

This is awesome Canada Mark! Exactly what I wanted to know. This abscess is intensely painful; you'd never think you could feel a growth in your rectum but with every step/sitting/heck even breathing is a painful reminder. It's so insane that even perc's didn't touch it. It was surgically drained a month ago (4 days in hospital and 2 ivig infusions) and I thought it was gone. sigh. So rather than go the surgery route again (and avoid drainage seaton and another surgery) I started doing research....just very confused as to whether ppls were applying it topically to an external abscess or internally through the rectum.

Will try it tomorrow and let you know...I have never heard of using honey but it makes sense....is it manuka honey ?

Also if it's a full abscess again, it would for sure need to be drained...... otherwise nothing will even get to it. So again the surgery route would make more sense.

You could try from both ends... www.healthfirst.ca/supreme-cough-relief-is-here.aspx should be pretty easy to find around you. Gel caps. I get it a fiddlehead health and nutrition but I don't think they have a Toronto location. I take one gel cap 3x daily which is the equivalent to ~5 drops of oil 3 times a day. It's super easy this way. Plus it has Thyme Oil mixed in it.

Canada- thanks for the tip... I'm a bit nervous about taking something additional by mouth. Just got my bowel back...9 days of normal (woohoo). I think for now rectal is the way to go. Worth a try.

Fight UC. I understand what you are saying. however this post isn't about UC & removing my colon... Just about an abscess. Hopefully surgery works for you.

Thanks Canada Mark----I've been thinking of you. I haven't had a chance to head to the HFS to gather your ingredients but I've been using WOO with olive oil for 2 days. LTYG has a protocol of every 2 hours...I've started slowly and do it twice a day. It's too soon to tell. After the first time, I had no pain for over 12 hrs...then yesterday was unable to rid myself...today no pain again. So basically I can't come to any firm conclusions yet but I'll keep going and hopefully implement your protocol by the weekend. This time it's not so much pain...just discomfort and an annoying one to feel something growing. It feels like there's a finger up my butt; or a pickle...or perhaps it was all that gum I swallowed as a kid:)

Prior to surgery I had a crash course in pain...which hopefully I won't feel again. Tons of epsom baths.

What about using my protofoam enemas and adding WOO to that?

I've found a chiro who is (in a round about way) using adjustments to help see if there's a difference in my UC. She was very helpful with the referral abscess pain. I sought treatment of a chiro because I thought the pain was from a pinched nerve....but she designed a very successful treatment protocol to help with the insane abscess pain. Nothing else helped. If you're interested send me a message and I'll provide the details.
