Renee, May I make a clarification to the "hint" that I gave. All I do remember in a course in sciences,was that if ever you were on a camping trip,got injured and there were no available anti-biotics or topical antiseptic ointments or the like...was to urinate on the wound,as urine was supposidly STERILE.Your own,not someone else's.

I should not have made the statement that I did,for I DON'T believe that it is the BEST treatment for a wound or cut. The reason that led me to this,was when I was in my early twenties and I did post about the woman who gave me facial treatments for my acne.That was even after a dermabrasion that left me with different scarring.After the dermbrasion,my acne returned with avengence.

She had not told me this was called Amaroli,but she did tell me to save my mid stream morning urine and apply to acne every morning.To dab it on. I was very reluctant,desperate,as I am now,...so I did what she told me too.

I do not recall it ever aggravating my acne...rather,it made my skin clearer within a month....combination of that and her special treatments. I followed thru with that for almost a year and my acne never returned till this day.Prior to that,I was on Tetracycline for most of my adolescent life,and I think that was definitely an inappropriate treatment for someone to be on for years.I now tend not to take everything doctors say as words written in gold,because someone has an MD.The tetracycline made me sun sensitive and had a negative impact on my eyes in sunlight.This was many years ago and I know things have changed,but certainly,being young and vulnerable....I took the dermatologists advice and used pills and creams etc.....this was a hormonal problem,it didn't require the use of anti-bioitics. Yes,I have had bad experiences with conventional medications almost all my life. I am hoping that some can understand me trying for some relief for my current difficulties.

As for the question you asked....I have to be honest and can not truly answer that.I can only type quotes from literature in the books that I have. If you debate the benefits,then as a board certified wound specialist...then you are obviously more informed than I am on that subject.If you are interested,I can send you some literature.I can attest to it being helpful for my acne,but cannot make the remark that I did,that it is the best for a cut or a wound.I am sorry I had written it that way.I should be more careful the way I word things. Here is a little quote: ""Briefly, if urine is ingested and/or rubbed into the skin, it purifies blood and tissues, provides useful nutrients and sends the body a signal about what is in or out of balance. This last effect is called (oral) auto-immunization. This brings us at a last important feature of urine. Urine itself is, as said, not a toxic waste product. It does contain however minute particles connected with possible disease processes in the body. These minute particles are mainly antibodies, which upon re-ingesting can help the body to react on specific pathological situations. Urine therapy has proven helpful in a great number of various diseases, ranging from a simple cold and a throatache, to tuberculosis and asthma, from minor skin problems such as itching, to more serious skin diseases such as eczema, psoriasis and even skin cancer."
