This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEP Curriculum.  Completing this BB is part of getting the straw badge in Natural Medicine.

Here's a video that has a few ideas which may or may not be applicable to your friend's issue:


Minimum requirements:
  - Help your friend with their Sprain problem
  - Refer to them by a number or pseudonym that you will continue to use for that friend throughout the Natural Medicine badge

To document completion of the BB, provide the following:
  - Your friend's pseudonym
  - Describe the issue your friend is struggling with
      - Symptoms
      - Duration
      - Severity
      - Medical diagnosis (if any)
 - Your suggestions for relief (including, but not limited to)
     - Behavioral
     - Food as medicine
     - Concoctions
 - Description of success (including, but not limited to)
     - What your friend actually did
     - How well it worked
     - How long it took to see results
 - Picture of you with friend on the first meeting

Dee turned her ankle while playing ball. After 1.5 weeks of icing and St. John's Wort salve and some rest it still wasn't improving. She went to the dr. and learned it was sprained. They gave her a air splint and I added my poultice blend to her treatment. After 3 missed ball games and a few set backs she's better.

Her version "Iced, poultice, got better then I over did it and it got worse but now I'm better. I did not like the salve because it was oily."
