Black drawing salve is a topical ointment that is known for its ability to soothe skin irritations, reduce itchiness from bug bites, and help draw out toxins, splinters, and foreign objects from the skin. Here's how to use it effectively:

How to Use Black Drawing Salve:

1. Clean the Affected Area: Start by cleaning the affected area with mild soap and water. Pat it dry with a clean cloth or towel.

2. Apply a Small Amount: Using a clean fingertip or a clean spatula, apply a small amount of the black drawing salve directly to the skin over the irritated area. Be sure to cover the entire affected area with a thin layer of the salve.

3. Gently Rub In: Gently rub the salve into the skin using a circular motion. This helps ensure that the salve makes good contact with the skin and any irritants or foreign objects.

4. Leave It On: After applying the salve, leave it on the skin. For bug bites, rashes, or other skin irritations, you can cover the area with a clean bandage or gauze to prevent the salve from rubbing off on clothing or bedding.

5. Overnight Application: In some cases, especially for splinters or deeper skin issues, you may want to leave the black drawing salve on overnight. This allows the salve to work more effectively by softening the skin and drawing out the irritants.

6. Multiple Applications: Depending on the severity of the issue, you may need to apply the salve for several nights in a row. For splinters, you may see the end of the splinter emerge, making it easier to remove with tweezers. Be gentle when removing any foreign objects.

7. Clean and Discontinue Use: After the irritant or foreign object has been drawn out, clean the area again with soap and water. Discontinue the use of the black drawing salve once the issue has resolved.
