I have read in places that if it is fine ground it can be used to clot wounds. Is this true? and Where could I get a supply of some?
 
ive read that too.i dont know if it works but it's available at the grocery store in the spices aisle
 
That sounds like the most painful thing you could possibly rub into a wound. Cayenne pepper contains Oleoresin Capsicum, the active ingredient in pepper spray- a severe inflammatory agent. It might cause a cut area to swell up and restrict bleeding, but it might not. It certainly WILL make it hurt a lot more. This sounds like something a frat boy would tell another frat boy as a prank.

FB#1: "Hey I just cut myself!"
FB#2: "Rub some cayenne pepper into it, man, I hear it really helps"
FB#1: "Okay, thanks! (rub rub ru...) OWWWWWWWW! You bastard!"
FB#2: "Huh huh huh. You're stupid"
 
I've heard that too. Volunteers? (All step back except for...). Mmmotorcycle we would all like to thank you for voluteering for this test. Please hold out your arm. Hey! Where did he run off too?

LOL!:D . Seriously tho... I recall some one on the forum getting a bad knife wound and saying they poured the pepper into the wound and used super glue to seal it shut. Apparently it leaves a cleaner scar than stitiches do.

I will have some of the pepper close at hand the next time I chop a finger or stab myself when I'm a little more tired than normal....:yawn: . Who knows? I might go into shock because of the pain.
 
mmm please try to post your responce before the ambulance gets there. Enquiring minds want to know. :)
 
my fiancee is a diabetic...
maybe next time she pricks her finger to test her blood sugar i sneak a little pinch on there
:D
 
I've heard it, don't want to try it. As for superglue I imagine it's like covering cuts with duct tape, closes it but really not a good choice health wise if you have another option.
 
The OC issue aside, I strongly suggest not contaminating an open wound with any substance. With out having tried the new Quik-Clot type anti-coagulant I will stick to the traditional treatment. However, using Super Glue to seal the edges of the wound closed is good. If anyone can point me to text on natural topical anti-coagulants (such as bee comb) I would be happy to educate myself further and maybe change my mind.
 
using pepper or glue or duct tape on an open wound sounds like the recipie for a grand infection...Take a first aid class, if you haven't already and practice the dressings..Learning how to do a really good one is an art unto itself, and you can get stock up on some first aid supplies as any drug store.
 
wow next time some one gets a cut im going to suggest that they salt the wound & apply some cayenne..... then season with mrs. dash to taste :D :thumbup:

on a serious note, ive also read that it works like quick clot & it doesnt burn (as much or at all?) as it seems it would :confused:

ummmmm i assume this only applies in an emergency situation where only cayenne pepper is accessible and you have a bleeder?
 
I dont know about cayenne pepper ON a wound,but taken INTERNALLY it is a blood thinner.

Also, Crazy Glue was originally developed as a field replacement for sutures by the Army and works quite well in this capacity.
 
CAYENNE PEPPER - EMERGENCY USES
Compiled And Edited By Tom Harrelson

THERAPEUTIC ACTION
CAYENNE is a POWERFUL and PURE Stimulant, having NO Narcotic Effect, increasing the POWER of the Pulse and carrying the Blood to ALL parts of the Body, plus EQUALIZING and RESTORING the BALANCE of Circulation throughout the Body! Cayenne is a Hemostat, ARRESTING the flow of Blood from a Cut or Wound in SECONDS and a Cardiac Tonic, HELPING to REBUILD the Heart. It is an Antiseptic, KILLING Pathogens and a Counter-Irritant, helping to RELIEVE Pain. And Cayenne is a Stomachic, HELPING to DIGEST Foods and a Carminative, HELPING to EXPEL Gas. CAYENNE PEPPER IS DR. SCHULZE'S NO. 1 EMERGENCY HERB!


FORMULA
The BEST Cayenne Pepper Tincture is made by the following Dr. Schulze Method:
1. Start to make this and ANY Tincture, if possible, on a NEW Moon.
2. Take a Quart Canning Jar and fill it 1/4 FULL with DRIED Cayenne Peppers, getting the HOTTEST ones (i.e. - Habanero, African Bird, Serrano, Jalapeno - 90,000+ Heat Units), that you can obtain.
3. Add enough 50% Grain Alcohol (100 Proof Vodka) to the Cayenne Peppers (powdered, using a Blender or Grinder) to just COVER them.
4. Use enough FRESH Cayenne Peppers, that you can blend with 50% Grain Alcohol (100 Proof Vodka) to turn the Mixture into an Apple Sauce-Like Consistency.
5. Add this Mixture to the 1st Mixture, filling up the Canning Jar 3/4 FULL.
6. Fill up the rest of the Canning Jar with MORE 50% Grain Alcohol (100 Proof Vodka).
7. Shake it as MANY times as possible, during the Day.
8. Let this Mixture sit, until the following FULL Moon (15-16 Days), but OPTIMALLY until the following NEW Moon (28-29 Days)!
9. Strain this Mixture through an UNBLEACHED Coffee Filter.
10. Bottle the RESULTING Tincture.

NOTE: Part EQUALS Volume, NOT Weight in this Tincture Method. Modify this procedure by using DRIED Herbs ONLY, if FRESH Herbs are NOT AVAILABLE, and when making other Herbal Tinctures also. Also if you want to make a SUPER-POTENT Tincture (i.e. - Cayenne Pepper & Lobelia Seed Pod - see below), then allow the Mixture to sit for a FULL 3 Months!



APPLICATIONS & DOSAGES
NOTE: In the following Steps of this Section, "Dropperfuls" or "tsp." are referring to Cayenne Pepper Tincture, unless otherwise noted. SUBSTITUTE Cayenne Pepper Powder (250,000 Heat Units or above - Habanero, African Bird, Serrano, Jalapeno), if Cayenne Pepper Tincture is NOT AVAILABLE. 1 HEAPING Tablespoon added to an 8 oz. Glass of PURE Water is EQUAL to 5 Dropperfuls of Tincture. 1 Dropperful EQUALS 30 Drops.

If you're working with an UNCONSCIOUS Person, you must be CAREFUL, when putting the Dropperfuls into the Mouth, so that you do NOT CHOKE or DROWN this Person, but then even if he/she GAGS a little, you are SAVING his/her LIFE!! The above recommendations for a Heart Attack came from Dr. Richard Schulze, M.H., N.D., who saw MANY MIRACLES with his Methods!

Remedy #4: Cayenne Pepper

3 YEA

Jane from Poulsbo writes, "Applying powdered cayenne to a wound stops the bleeding within minutes! I've read that you can also take it to treat internal bleeding. I think the recipe is 1/4 teaspoon in a glass of tomato juice."

9/3/2006: Douglas from Monticello, FL writes, "Cayenne pepper stops bleeding and heals the wound, even one that the bone could be seen in the heel of the hand. The scar is almost nil."

12/11/2006: Elizabeth from Gulfport, Mississippi writes, "I used cayenne pepper on a fresh cut on my arm. The cayenne pepper stopped the bleeding. The cayenne pepper will only sting for a second."
 
Superglue on a cut is not a bad thing and won't give you an infection unless you've already introduced bacteria into the wound. In fact, super glue was originally developed as a replacement for butterfly bandages and sutures on smaller lacerations. Several surgical adhesives are in use that have nearly the same chemical make-up as off-the-shelf Krazy Glue.
Cayanne pepper? Beats the crap out of me. Then again, my stepfather told me that salt would stop the bleeding of a scrape when I was a little kid....
 
No comment about your ( ! ) stepfather. :D

For the poster that asked, Ceyenne pepper can be gotten at any grocer that sells spices. I use it on most of my food. Not being able to drink alcohol, I won't be making up any tinctures, but I do carry both ceyenne and honey in my vehicle and gear. Both work very well in the food and med sections.
 
I have read in places that if it is fine ground it can be used to clot wounds. Is this true? and Where could I get a supply of some?

Being we all know now that it is a cure all, here you go, here is my source. I hope you notice that I put the 160,000 Scoville units pepper in the link, I want to see if I can hear you scream from all the way to where I live at.:D

It actually is very good pepper at a great price.

Enjoy.:D

I actually use the 60 K pepper for my jerky but what the heck, 160K will probably stop the bleeding twice as fast.
 
I also heard that if you use tincture of Oakmallet it helps shut you up after using the tincture of cayanne. d:)
 
Pitdog thanks for the info but I put my foil hat on and stopped reading when it said I should start taking the tincture on a new moon. :p
