When I was younger whenever we got a puncture wound my aunt would make a poulice (sp?) using ground flaxseed, & hot water. Put that over the wound & cover with a bandage & leave till it dries, usually overnight. As the flaxseed dries it would pull out the any infections in the puncture. It also worked to pull out splinters.
So what do you do when it's night and you're hurting?
