I have too many to post- but will send you a list- the one thing that sticks out is- for sore throat- take a black piece of thread and kerosene on it- tie loose around your neck- has to be black and sore throat will be gone in the morning- my mom's -mom believed in all of these things-

yes, there are lots of them that actually work. The chemistry of some very simple ingredients works exactly like "professional" treatments because chemically speaking, they are the exact same ingredients. I hardly ever recommend them to users on here as I have not examined their pet and can't tell if it is something simple or something else that can only be treated by a vet. Since common sense isn't so common any more, I often tell posters to go to the vet. I would rather err on the side of caution than give someone advice that could turn to be harmful because the poster themselves can't tell sh!te from shinola. I mean really- if the questioner is not smart enough to keep their animal inside in the first place then why would I think they could understand instructions on how to lance and clean and dress an infected wound. Besides, I am not even confident that half of them could tell if it was a simple flesh wound or if it was serious. Every time I read one of those questions like "My cat/dog got hit by a car, how do I treat their broken leg,ribs,jaw... at home", I get sick to my stomach... any more, if it isn't something dead simple, I just tell them to get to a vet.

Hot steam & Vick's vapor rub for sinuses & chest congestion.
Gargle with a mix of 1/2 peroxide & 1/2 water, it will almost take a sore throat away(kills the germs down there)!
