    Ringworm:- They used to put a rim of ink around the sore.
    Warts:- They used get a rotten potato or the water of potatoes and rub it to the warts.
    Sores:- They mix soap and sugar and warm it and put it on the sore to cure it. They boil white bread in a cup of boiling water and squeeze it and put it on a bruise to make a drop. Dog leaf is put on sores also.
