Here's a couple to start: Boils...soak a piece of brown paper bag in vinegar (the are needs to be covered) and place over boil. When the paper dries, the boil will have come to a head.
Skin so soft makes an excellent mosquito repellent

ARTHRITIS: make a cream by adding 3 to 4 drops of cayenne pepper tincture to 1 teaspoon of oliver oil.
UNPLUG STUFFED SINUSES: heat ordinary table salt in a frying pan, then spread it out on a clean towel. fold it up and lay it on the bridge of your nose.
SCALP IRRITATION: prepare a strong tea using 4 tablespoons of marigold to 1 quart of boiling water. steep for 15 minutes, then add 1/4 cup of apple cider vinegar to restore your scalp's proper pH. use as a final rinse after shampooing.
LARYNGITIS: grate a carrot onto a piece of cheesecloth. fold the cloth in half, moisten with warm water, wrap it around your neck, and then wrap a warm towel on top. it should ease the inflammation.
PINK EYE: (as an eyewash) steep 2 teaspoons of dried chamomile in 1 pint of boiling water for 10 minutes. then cool, strain, then rinse your eye.
DIARRHEA: mix 1 teaspoon of chocolate carob powder in 1/4 cup of applesauce and eat it slowly. it will quickly put an end to the diarrhea.
EARACHES: cut an onion in half, and blanch it in boiling water. wrap the onion in cheesecloth, and hold it to your ear. the hot sulfer compounds in the onion provide soothing relief in as fast as 10 minutes.
SUNBURN: fill an 8 ounce spray bottle with cold water and add 6 drops or so of essential oil of lavender. shake well and spray on sunburn areas.
ZITS: add 1 teaspoon of onion juice to 1 tablespoon of honey, mix well, apply to the pimple/zit/blackhead, leave on for 15 minutes, rinse with warm water and follow up with a cold splash.
