What is a "poultice"?
A poultice is a soft, moist substance applied to the skin to help reduce inflammation, pain, or infection. It is typically made of natural materials like herbs, clay, or flour mixed with water. Poultices are used to remove harmful substances, reduce swelling, or provide relief from minor skin problems. They are applied directly to the affected area and covered with a cloth or bandage to keep them in place. Poultices have been used for centuries as a natural treatment for various health issues and are still used today in traditional and alternative medicine practices.
