Do You Have an Unusual Home Remedy?

We all know about chicken soup for colds, but do you have a lesser known way to treat what ails you?

Recently, I suffered a minor injury to my ankle. One Patch reader suggested I soak a cloth in vinegar and put it on my ankle to reduce the swelling and bruising. This was a new treatment to me. My question to you readers this week is do you have an unusual home remedy to treat colds, cuts, coughs and more? Maybe something your grandmother passed down to you? Tell us about it in the comments.
