There was a case like that. In the mountains, Sergei seriously injured a finger on his right hand, but there were no doctors or necessary medicines nearby. Time was lost, the infection led to severe inflammation and suppuration of the wound.
When he returned to the city a few days later, he had to go to the hospital. But delayed treatment did not help, gangrene began. The council of doctors came to a unanimous opinion: only finger amputation can save the hand. This verdict plunged Sergey, a professional musician, into complete despair: it would have been the collapse of his entire career!
On the eve of the operation, he complained about his fate to an elderly woman strolling around the hospital yard. Upon learning of the misfortune, she reassured: “Never mind, son! Come on, I'll show you something. " She led him to a pine tree that was growing nearby, and pointed to the already solidified stream of resin. “Zhivitsa - that's what you need! We must apply it to the wound. You can liquid, but you can also this - solid: crush into powder and sprinkle on the sore spot."
No sooner said than done … And the next morning - lo and behold! - the inflammation subsided so much that the surprised doctors decided to postpone the amputation and once again thoroughly clean the purulent wound. As a result, the next day the inflammation flared up with renewed vigor. The doubts that had appeared were gone: only amputation! And then Sergei, who had already believed in the miraculous power of the resin, simply fled from the hospital.
After a week of self-treatment with pine resin, he returned to the doctors. They couldn’t believe their eyes: the hopeless wound was completely cleared, dried up and began to tighten with new skin …
The recollection of the war years is also curious: “During the war, we in the medical battalion often lacked even basic medicines. It is even impossible to imagine how many wounded we saved with this resin! Not only were wounds treated with it, but pine resin was also given to chew. And also "vitamin tea" was prepared. They boiled pine needles in cauldrons and not only watered the poor fellows with this healing broth, but also washed the wounds, soaked the bandages."
Any wound heals from gum powder or plaster with thick, viscous resin in a matter of hours. With sore throat, just put a piece of resin in your mouth and suck or chew like chewing gum. One or two days, and you can forget about the sore throat. And also "gum" saliva heals the gums, and once it gets into the stomach, it tightens internal ulcers very well …

Long kind memory
The gum, this resin oozing from a damaged coniferous tree (scientifically - turpentine), in appearance resembles fresh bee honey. Viscous and extremely sticky resin is absolutely insoluble in water, but it dissolves well with ordinary vegetable oil. Hands or tools soiled with resin can simply be wiped with oil and then washed with soap and water.
It is not for nothing that they called her Zhivitsa in Russia. Damaged conifers - cedars, pines, spruces, larch, fir - use this sticky sap to heal and heal their wounds, protecting the wood from the penetration of bark beetles, fungi and other harmful influences.
The healing properties of the resin have been known to mankind for many millennia - at least since the times of Ancient Egypt. For centuries, it has been widely used for compresses and poultices, for bleeding, for the treatment of wounds and a variety of ailments. These are lung diseases, and rheumatism, digestive disorders, genitourinary infections, burns, ulcers, various skin diseases, etc. In the 16th century, resin was widely used to treat plague, because vapors of turpentine (and it is made from resin) have a bactericidal effect.
For centuries, the inhabitants of Siberia and the Urals have used resin for pain relief and quick healing of wounds, for the treatment of abscesses, boils, ulcers, burns, cuts, snake bites. In case of fractures, the sap was smeared with the injury site, and the bone healed faster. Cedar resin in Siberia was used to treat toothache by applying it to the tooth and gums. Siberian healers knew how to use resin to treat cataracts and cataracts, to treat cancer, stomach and duodenal ulcers, and to strengthen the nervous system. Fire from burning cedar resin (namely, incense was made from it before) has always been considered sacred, expelling evil spirits.
During the Russian-Turkish war of 1877, the great Russian surgeon Pirogov actively used resin to treat poorly healing wounds after amputation. This method of treatment even became the main topic of his scientific work. During the Great Patriotic War, the medicinal and anesthetic properties of the resin were successfully used in hospitals. Cuts and wounds, up to the most severe and chronic, and even gangrene, were filled with sap or balsam from sap. Pieces of tissue soaked in gum balm were applied to the abscesses as a softening, stretching and healing agent.

It has been reliably established that any resin, but especially cedar and larch, really has antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, anti-sclerotic and early-healing properties. The substances contained in the resin strengthen cells and help restore health to hair and nails. With prolonged use inside, the resin helps to restore liver and pancreas cells.
With regular intake, the removal of heavy and harmful substances from the body is activated, the metabolism in the body improves, which allows you to equalize blood pressure and improve the general state of human health.
Since olden times, resin has been mixed with vegetable or cedar oil. The result was turpentine balm - an excellent preparation with a more powerful healing effect than each component separately. It has worked well for both external and internal use. It can be used as a remedy for therapeutic massage.
With regular use inside, it well restores the protective function of cells at the molecular level, leads to an improvement in cerebral and peripheral blood circulation. There is only one subtlety: taking gum products inside is recommended only during daylight hours. This is due to the fact that resin and products derived from it interact best with the waking human body. At the same time, the resin, without arranging stressful situations for the body, gently and slowly turns on the regeneration process at the cellular level. As a result, a person's chromosome series begins to recover. Such profound effects are very rarely achieved even with sophisticated homeopathic healing systems.

Today, resin is a component of many ointments and lotions with analgesic effects. Ointment-balms based on resin are successfully used to treat all types of colds, cardiovascular, endocrine, skin and dental diseases, diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, musculoskeletal system, nervous system, etc.
Gum turpentine also has a strong healing effect. At first, it was used only externally in the form of ointments and rubbing for the treatment of rheumatism, bruises and sprains, but at the beginning of the 20th century in Russia, with excellent results, it began to be used in the form of solutions and emulsions for turpentine baths. Soon, scientists found out that purified gum turpentine, when in contact with the skin, causes expansion of capillaries, contributes to a significant increase in their number, which activates blood supply and restoration of damaged cells and tissues.
The resin has an amazing quality: it does not age. Once harvested, it retains its medicinal properties for centuries! The only thing that happens to it is that in the air it crystallizes and hardens over time, turning into amber-like golden or dark brown pieces that melt well when heated.
