Gargle with warm salt water,if you have a sore throat.

Use a fresh cut leaf of Aloe. Cut the leaf down the middle & rub the slimy stuff on the sunburn.

I roll my husband over when he snores Or I just wake him up.

Bite down hard on a clove. No Kidding.

Sunburn--aloe vera
Sore throat--gargle with hot water and honey, or water with salt and baking soda
Hangnail--clip it
Pimples--toothpaste

no but if you get a bee sting I have a great remedy get some tobbaco from a ciggerette nd get it wet and place it on the sting. It will soothe it and make it not itch later. This works best if done very soon after the sting happens.

what kind of toothpaste works best and do you just put it on at night and sleep with it on?

these are easy.

sunburn - aloe vera
snoring - smother them to death with a pillow. if that fails, earplugs for the non-snorer
sore throat - tea, lemon-ginger or herbal, something non or low-caffeine
toothache - advil or a trip to the dentist
hangnail - nail trimmers
pimples - stop eating chocolate. wash your face. wait till you grow up.

For sunburn I've always used Noxzema, for sore throat and toothace I've always found warm salt water to be helpful. For sore throat you gargle, for toothace you swish your mouth with the warm salt water. I don't know what to tell you about pimples as I've had maybe two in my entire life and I've never had a handnail. As for snoring, the only time I snore is when my allergies are bothering me and I roll over on my back in my sleep. Rolling on my side makes me stop snoring.

I don't sunburn so no help there, I don't snore as far as I know, for sore throat I use something like Hallis cough drops, usually the honey-lemon is most soothing to the throat, for a toothace I take some aspirin and get to the dentist as soon as I can, I don't think I've had handnails but I'm not quite sure what a handnail is, for pimples which I haven't had since I was a teen I always used those Stridex pads after washing my face with plain soap and water. It seemed to work okay.

Sunburn - take a cold bath...with ice cubes
Snoring - sex
Sore Throat - gargle with salt water
Toothache - a clove
Hangnail - cut it off, put a band-aid over it, quit biting your nails
Pimples - practice good hygiene, eat a proper diet with lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, drink plenty of water

Bleeding - coffee grounds will coagulate a cut that won't stop bleeding.
Sunburn - raise your own aloe vera and slather a slice on the sunburn, otherwise buy 100% aleo vera lotion, often it's only a few percent with a deceptive label and green food coloring.
Sorethroat - I loved a product called 'cyclone cider' made with vinegar, chili, garlic, and other such things. It was almost worth getting a sore throat to have an excuse to drink a dropper of the stuff. Hot lemon juice with honey ain't bad either.

Sunburn (or any burns) can be treated with Aloe Vera - either a bought cream or the pulp taken straight from the plant. It should be rubbed into the affected skin and left. Of course, prevention is better than cure - it's better to use a really good sunblock, at least factor 20 and a lot higher (at least 30) if you're fair. To be safe, use factor 60. And if you're sunburned badly enough to get large fluid filled blisters you should go to the hospital. When we went on a Biology field-trip to the sea with school it was a baking hot day and we were really exposed out on the shore. One girl ended up burned so badly she had to be taken to hospital the next day with shoulders covered in large yellow blisters. And I collapsed the next day in school with sunstroke.

Snoring I don't know much about. Don't sleep on your back!

Sore throat - gargle with honey dissolved in warm (not hot) water. Add a squeeze of lemon for flavour if you need it. Honey is a natural antiseptic. You can also spread it on wounds that risk becoming infected

Toothache - apply warmth to the outside of the face where it hurts. See a dentist.

Pimples - normal spots are supposed to be well treated by smearing toothpaste on them over night - that draws the pus out. Boils should be treated by applying heat (cotton wool soaked in warm water does the trick) once every hour to break down the pus and draw it out. Wash with warm soapy water at least twice a day. Shower rather than bath to avoid the boils from spreading. If you have carbuncles (several boils joined together) you can treat them in the same way but you should really see a doctor as they can be a sign of an underlying condition such as diabetes.

BTW, for everyone who advises sorting out your diet, drinking lots of water and washing your face for sorting out spots, it doesn't always work!!!

I've had spots since I was about 10 and I still have some now I'm 18. I'm hoping I just grow out of them, preferably *soon*! Washing actually makes mine worse because I have very sensitive skin and washing (even with just water) irritates it.

Mine are mostly hormone and stress dependent.

No

I've only ever used white, minty toothpaste. I've never used the gel-type. I put it on at night and sleep with it on. I find it works best for pimples that have a head already, or have partly popped. It's less effective for ones that are still completely under the skin.

Sore Throat: Hot tea with lemon and honey
Toothache: Hold a used tea bag over tooth
Pimples: Milk of Mag and Witch hazel

Sunburn: I've got it bad right now. I was out between 10 AM and 2 PM yesterday with nothing but Coca-Cola on my poor self. Take a cold shower immediately and slather your quasi-damp skin with aloe vera. Straight from the damn plant is best, but cream or lotion that has it listed as its main ingredient is acceptable too. Repeat this frequently, cold shower and all. Also, if you have a bathtub (we live in the tropics, so we don't) you should soak in cold milk if you can.

Snoring: sleep facing down, drink hot water with peppermint steeped in.

Sore Throat: honey. Straight up.

Toothache: go to a dentist.

Hangnail: cream and wrap it.

Pimples: tape a tiny slice of lemon to it and leave it on overnight. Or a teabag.

Sunburn-bathe in tepid water with baking soda in it
Sore throat-drink hot water with honey and lemon in it
Toothache-put a drop of whiskey on the sore tooth
Hangnail-Don't pull on or bite the hangnail
Pimples-put some toothpaste on them overnight
Bladder/kidney infections-Drink cranberry juice
Headache-pinch the piece of skin between your thumb and forefinger
Sprained ankle-ace, ice, and elevate

meat tenderizer helps bee stings, too.

Aloe vera for sunburn, but I guess most everybody knows about this. It works.

Sunburn - Dampen a rag with milk and hold the rag on the burn for a bit.
Soak in tea or use it the same as the milk.

Sore throat - Take a tablespoon of lemon juice for a few days.

Pimples - Toothpaste over night. Eye drops before make up.

Maybe later

Snoring: My husband is an awful snorer. My cure is sleeping on the couch. I sleep better there anyway
Not everyone can use earplugs. I have to get up early for work in the morning, so I have to be able to hear the alarm clock.

I have tried that and it soothes a little bit but my method takes the whole sting away. You won't even know you were stung

Noxema is a great relief to painful sunburn.

sunburn-aloe
sore throat-licorice, zinc
toothache-clove oil, rub your hand inbetween your thumb and forefinger
hangnail-soak in olive oil and trim
pimples-a dab of toothpaste, or castile soap, or a dot of patchuli oil

i know what you're talking about...i hope that someday mine will be all gone also, but ihope that i haven't been cursed w/ my mother's skin, who is in her 50's and still breaks out!!! it's strange that people have that common mentality about people like us, you know, that we eat too much chocolate, too much oil, salt, that we don't know how to wash, etc. i've found out something though, i found that if i'm nervous about something, that i get butterflies in my stomacn, i get a spot or 2 on my chin. if my heart is heavy or if it aches, i'll get a spot on my nose. if i'm thinking too much, i'll get a spot on my forehead. sucks also around the time when "aunt flo" comes in for a visit. it doesn't amtter how much water i drink, how clean i keep my skin, wheter or not i touch my face, i'll still get a spot! maybe someday i will be clear....

yeah, saline solution works alright too

Fingers crossed for both of us!

Sunburn: Grow an aloe plant.
Snoring: buy earplugs.
Sore Throat: "Standard" (orange pekoe) hot tea with a heap of lemon and honey
Toothache: When I had one, drinking cold water seemed to help.
Hangnail: Bathroom surgery
Pimples: See hangnail

right on!

I think I got one for sunburn. Coppersport. Oh wait, it only works if you put it before you get sunburn. Never mind.

Thanks for the tip. Yeah, Noxzema is great for sunburns.So is Sea Breeze.

Sunburn: talcum powder in the sheets when you go to bed stops it hurting so much. Don't use soap for the first day when you shower. Use some aloe on it.
Snoring: Get someone to wake you up when you snore!
Sore Throat: Hot lemon and honey drink PLUS garlic and brandy!

Wow.. thanks for the tips on sunburns ecspecially!!! I was hoping this survey would do well!!!! As for the sunburn.. i hva ea really severe sunburn.. 2nd degree burn its that bad!!!

Some of those throat recipes might help ease the pain too.

Stitching tennis balls into your back stops snoring.

In a t-shirt I mean.

How would the throat remedies help my sunburn? Would i rub it in or use it as a poultice??

I was thinking more along the lines of drink a few of those brandies with lemon and honey, and be feeling no pain. I was still joking though. I don't recommend pain killers, and certainly not drinking pain away. Maybe there's a time for that, but I can't think of any.

RingWorm... Bleach and a towel. Unless of course you want to use over the counter cream for 4 weeks. (may cause scarring)

My Stepmother uses vinegar on sunburns (as long as she does not have to go out *holds nose*) I've never tried it myself though. I stick with the Aloe.

Sunburn - Buy some of that green aloe vera gel. It feels really good and does not stain your clothing.

Snoring - Sleep on your side. Try a product called "Snorenz" if necessary. You spray it in the back of your throat, hold it there for about 30 seconds, then swallow. It works wonders.

Sore throat - I wish I knew. I swear by Halls mentholyptus cough drops.

Toothache - Any kind of oral analgesic, such as OraGel, works for me.

Hangnail - Moisturize hands, then clip off the extra skin. Never pull it off.

Pimples - Use toothpaste or hemmorhoid ointment overnight to dry out the pimple, peroxide to get rid of redness. If you must pop it, use a small, sterile, flat-edged item, such as a pin or safety pin, to press against the side of the pimple. Do not use your nails or fingers or it can cause open wounds or bruises.

Anyone got any good cures for an aching neck?

kissing Mandy?

*kisses mandy*

Wow, it's better all of a sudden!

See!

gargling with warm salt water is good for sore throat. Aloe is good for sunburn, make the snoring person sleep in another room, hit yourself on the head with a hammer then your toothache won't seem so bad, rip your nails out to cure hangnail, getting sunburned or using a sunlamp is good for drying pimples, drinking sperm helps your breasts get bigger (will volunteer to help with this),
