Staph Remedies for the Eyes
Posted by Magnolia 16 (Virginia, USA) on 06/14/2019
Does anyone have any ideas about how to treat a staph infection of the eye. My husband has a painful boil/cyst on the eyeball, red, itchy. He tried diluted apple cider vinegar and got no results. He is now using a prescription of cipro eyedrops and after 3 days no improvement - he has a week to go on those drops. Any help would be appreciated.

Turmeric

My daughter had a staph infection as well. 2 rounds of antibiotics did not help. We used a cosmetic cream with 90% turmeric in sandalwood oil base (found in the Indian grocery store, or online) applied topically helped a lot, especially if caught early on the life of the boil. I also give turmeric in warm milk, masked with a tsp of molasses.
Ultraviolet Blood Irradiation

Hi, I had a staph infection in my hand that went septic 4 years ago. Then my kidney started hurting. Eventually my doctor tested my urine and said I had an infection. I'm assuming it's staph but I don't know for sure. I took many rounds of antibiotics. It always came back.
Just recently I started going to a naturopath after I stumbled upon some info about ubi therapy. Basically they expose your blood to ultraviolet light. It kills a lot of bacteria and damages some which makes a vaccine-like effect. My first treatment had a dramatic effect. I was feeling 10 time better within a few days. I've been to 4 treatments so far and am getting progressively better.
I'm also drinking kefir and taking vitamins to boost my immune system as prescribed. I've recently started doing vitamin c titration with powdered vitamin c from ebay. I think its working with the ubi very well. I'll update when I'm cured.
Vitamin C

I picked up something like staph on my chin after using someone's face powder. It began with an itch, next day a chunk of skin fell off my chin area. It itched pretty much all night. By late afternoon my entire skin below nose line was falling off in chunks. I had called my doctor who prescribed antibiotics but I was waiting for my son to pick it up for me in the meantime I prayed for help from God and I heard this instruction: take Vitamin C tablets, pound them and apply directly to the affected area. I was scared and weirded out but did it. The itching stopped within a short time. I took 1000 mg pill form with soup for dinner since I couldn;'t move my mouth too much. Went to bed and in the morning there seemed to be great relief so I did the same thing. By day three I was on road to recovery. Never took the antibiotics. New skin came back within a couple weeks. I have photographs of different stages but can't find it, have lots of things in a storage. This happened in 2012. No more sharing face powder or anything else with anyone!
