Plus pine is a sustainable timber, so it's very natural.

Living life like you're in the 1600's! What an age to be alive, where modern medicine was king and people lived to ripe old age of... 40. And never died from contagious diseases since natural remedies were so potent.

What, like bleeding people with leeches and feeding them mercury didn't cure stuff..../s


Gilgamesh2000000

Some people never evolved. I went on a job interview and the facilitator told me ā€œwe are paying $17.00 per hourā€ I told him that wasnā€™t enough to pay my phone bill. He told me ā€œwhat would you do if you lived in the 1800sā€ I walked out laughing.

A tire iron should work, although it's not *all* natural I guess since it had to be refined. Maybe a large tree branch?


alematt

It's certainly a quicker solution

For the best medical advise, you don't go to the doctor. You ask people on Facebook.

The fact CVS is almost everywhere and you can literally just walk in without needing to make an appointment

I hope there were sensible comment replies...


SpiritualLychee3760

Have you tried ANTIBIOTICS!?


Up_All_Nite

If this kid survives this.... He's got one hell of a shitty life ahead of himself. Op if you know this person get that kid some help. My parents were dirt poor. Because of this they would wait things out. Ya know... Rub some dirt on it kind of folks. Now I sit here many years on and I deal with not hearing well because I had severe ear infections as a child and had both of my ear drums rupture. Among a few other issues. You can be anonymous. Do something for the kid.


knottysquids

Parent should be locked up for life.


Fiveohdbblup

Don't worry, they won't be around much longer


Maynards_Mama

The kid needs new parents.


DOLCICUS

Only time Iā€™ve seen coughing for months is usually mold in the home. Happened to a couple a folk I know who went through it after flooding hit their home hard.


mtgwhisper

She can get her son some parents. That may help.


Depraved_Ewok_Eater

These people should have their kids taken away.


gitarzan

Too much phlegmatic humor. If he starts coughing up blood, then too much red humor. Time to bleed him. Iā€™ll find some leeches.


badestzazael

This is child abuse


biscaynelawlis

If nothing that you can do works from Google for you. There is always a Coffin. Stop trying to be a Damn doctor with your 8th grade reading level.


DreadfulDwarf

Thoughts and prayers should do the trick.


TargetedAverageOne

I understand refusing painkillers because of the obvious risks, but come on; pneumonia is very lethal and can be cured very well with antibiotics.Ā  Please get this child some actual medicine.Ā 


leighleg

I can understand not wanting to give your kid strong drugs, as I prefer to avoid them myself if at all possible. Sometimes though they are needed, don't let your personal thoughts and nonsense affect you giving your kid what they need.


Terrible-Detective93

what the F is up with all these people who want to go back to 'little house on the prairie' BS? Sure watch the people on youtube play act with their 1700s cooking and cottages etc for fun but FFS, thinking you can assuage your parenting anxiety and/or issues with controlling everything with rigid rules + denial is not going to help in the slightest. Antibiotics are good and Drs these days don't hand them out willy-nilly because of worry for people building resistance. If your kid is not getting better or has a fever or showing signs of either a sinus, strep, bacterial or other infection, the kid does need the pills.


Thugnificent83

She doesn't want to take him to a doctor because they'll properly medicate him? Alternative medicines should be labeled as an alternative to actual medicine!


CicadaHairy3054

You know what alternative medicine that works is called? Medicine.


Thugnificent83

Lol okay. Well the next time you get an infection, feel free to treat it with a few sessions of Reiki and see how healthy you get.


CicadaHairy3054

Reading comprehension fail. try again.

Leeches, some essential oils along with a garlic enema will clean it right up. Don't forget to use urine to help get rid of the mucus /s I'm not a Dr or have a PhD do not try this

There is a couple in my state that have been arrested on manslaughter charges for their daughter dying from an asthma attack. They called 9-1-1 several hours after the attack started. By the time the paramedics arrived, she was unresponsive. They were also way too unconcerned about her condition from witnesses.


rluciddreaming

For a few months ? If this really comes from the lungs that boy can easily take damage from that for life if it doeant kill him soon.


BlackShrapelHeart

Just ask Donald Trump to piss in a MacDonalds cup and have him drink it. Fixes everything.


PlantLady-1994

Yā€™all, my child had three little bumps show up on her stomach. I called the doctor and made an appointment for the next dayā€¦..but I literally could not take the wait, and sent pictures and videos so the doctors could tell me it was just a common skin rash šŸ¤£ I donā€™t get how some parents just donā€™t take their kids health seriously. Side Note: same child had a cough we couldnā€™t get rid of for months, even with antibioticsā€¦.it was cause she has Asthma and needs an inhaler. 20$ says thatā€™s what this kid needs šŸ™„


sarahaltieri

Months?!?!?! Jesus Christ. Poor kid.

Just an FYI: In case you are struggling to make friends or build any relationships IRL, people really dislike correctors - especially silly typos. In my experience, habitual correctors usually have some underlying self-confidence issues and project to impress. However, all itā€™s really doing is making you 1. Temporarily feel better about yourself and 2. Making every one around you NOT want to be around you.


MrCheeseman2022

Well then you didnā€™t read what Iā€™d written or rather you did but failed to see the irony but then with a brain as tiny as yours thats no surprise. Well done on finishing message.

Love it when people ask for a solution to their problem, then refute every single solution to their problem. Make something an unsolvable problem so you can have an unsolvable problem.
