    This does the trick every time. I mix it up in a water bottle with a prominent label on the front (don't want any mix-ups!), and apply it every other day for prevention. Thanks to those who...

    Well, I'm a little unorthodox when I make this. I kind of just dump rubbing alcohol, aspirin, and witch hazel into a bottle until I'm satisfied with my concoction. It's basically about 3/4 alcohol...

    This really does work (on any kind of random swelling or bump), but it requires frequent application for faster/better results. Easy to find the ingredients and mix everything up. Super-cheap....
