Prickly heat -

This itchy red rash is best treated with one of England's most common weeds. Herbalist Lynda Jones says that chickweed is the perfect remedy and grows abundantly in hedgerows and roadsides.
Soak the leaves in boiling water then dab it onto the affected skin to stop itching and take heart out of the area.

Sunburn-

White vinegar is a great traditional cure. Either rub some directly onto the affected area or pour a cupful into a warm bath and soak for fifteen minutes. It instantly relieves the pain and redness and helps lessen the peeling.

Diarrhoea-

A common problem, this can be relieved by shredding a peeled apple, let it turn brown and then eat it. Browned apples contain pectin which helps bind stools. As you will also need to replace fluids sip a homemade tea or ginger and cinnamon to relieve the cramping and combat any infection.

Constipation-

Many of you find ourselves bunged up on the occasion, but the cure is simple! Prune juice before breakfast followed by a glass of cloudy apple juice half an hour later should get your systems working properly again.

Earache -

Earache is another annoying hazzard, mix up some pain relieving eardrops using sesame oil or olive oil as a base with either lavender or thyme essential oil. Warm the mixture and place a couple of drops in each ear.

Acne- 

The combination of sweat and oily skin often can bring out spots but try an egg-white face mask. Simply beat the white of an egg and apply it to the face and leave until it feels draw and tight. rinse off with cold water. Egg whites contain protein and fatty acids which replenish the skin and tighten pores.

Hay fever -

stinging nettles have long been used to treat hay fever. They contain an anti inframmatory called scopoletin which counteracts the body's release of histamine. Sip nettle tea to keep the sniffles at bay.

Blisters-

For a great natural blister plaster, peel a thin slice from the leaf of an aloe vera plant, place it on the affected area and then cover up with an adhesive bandage. Aloe has powerful astringent and healing qualities.

Sore Muscles-

If you're aching from gardening or playing games with friends, soak in a warm bath with two cupfuls of cider apple vinegar. Vinegar is believed to improve the body's blood circulation with in turn removes harmful toxins and muscles.
