5. Lime Juice
If you are suffering from a staph infection and looking for something around the home to help heal the infection more quickly, lime may be the answer. According to research, the juice from a lime can help treat infections caused by staph bacteria. If you have lime in your home and you are suffering from an infection or if you cut yourself and want to prevent an infection, simply juice a lime.
Make sure that you do not mix the lime juice with anything as undiluted lime juice works best. Once you have squeezed the juice out of the lime you will want to then pour the juice directly onto the abrasion or the cut. This will help to prevent it from becoming infected. If you have an abscess, you can mix the lime juice with some freshly grated garlic to help cure the abscess.
