A good solution for sunburns would
have to be a paper bag soaked with vinegar. Tear up the paper
bag and soak it in vinegar then place bag evenly across the burn,
this draws out the heat and keeps you from wanting to scratch
your burn. Some people say to use aloe vera but I found that
some people can be allergic to it so be careful and the vinegar
remedy really does work...a true lifesaver.
Potato for Burns - BY DIANA J
A waitress once
told me this in a restaurant and it sooooooo works. If you get
burnt when cooking etc., any skin burn, cut a potato and rub
all over burn so that the juices spread over your burn. Even
better is to grate a little and then pat it all over your burn
and leave a few minutes. Next day, there will be no mark, this
always works for me and I use to mark really badly. Recently,
when I burnt my mouth upon tasting something too hot(you know
how that hurts and annoys your mouth for days), well, I just
chewed up a piece of raw potato in mouth, (no skin), left it
in there a few minutes and the next day fine as ever. It truly
is amazing.

Drawing Out Splinters and Boils - BY SHELLYBOB
When you have an annoying splinter
that won't come out or a boil that won't come to a head, rub
some soap onto a plaster and add a little bit of sugar then put
the plaster over the splinter or boil and leave on for 24 hours.
If it still hasn't come out, try again but trust me it should
work first time. Its helped me loads of times!!!

Note: A plaster is also known as a Band-Aid.
