I have two large ulcers on my leg. My leg feels much better after soaking in Epsom Salts. Can I use this treatment everyday?

I want to relieve the pain, inflammation and speed up recovery.

Yes, soaking in Epsom salts daily can help even infected ulcers, but it can also dry out the skin impeding the healing process. Instead, try soaking in tea tree oil.

You can use the treatment everyday, there is not harm in that. However, simply relieving the pain is not going to cure the ulcers. You need to clean the ulcers after soaking and put bandages on them with a fair amount of pressure. If this does not help them please consult a doctor.

It is safe to use Epsom Salts daily. It is advisable to do so since this will disinfect the womb and also reduce pain.
