Breast infection
Poultices of cabbage leaves have been used for a long time on nursing women with infected breasts. It’s said that the cabbage can pull the infection out, and besides it’s known for its analgesic properties. Remove the thick nerve and roll the leaves soft before use. Change poultices two times a day and rub the skin with oil first, so it doesn’t get irritated by the cabbage juice.
