When the bee stings I USE……

well after talking about Dettol I thought I would tell you about T.C.P. The other antiseptic I use and have used for many a year.

T.C.P. liquid comes in a brown bottle with a blue’y green label with white writing.
When you open the white screw cap a distinctive smell is released the liquid is not quite clear has a hint of amber colour only a hint.
Does not taste very nice cant describe taste it’s a medicated taste .
T.C.P. contains phenol b.p.o, Halogenated phenols and sodium salicylate


I do not use T.C.P.s a disinfectant like Dettol it is an antiseptic for cleaning wounds.

Good for small cuts and grazes insect bites and stings.
T.C.P should be diluted in an equal amount of water and applied freely, can be used undiluted in emergencies.
Oh it does sting a little when applied

T.C.P. can be used as a mouth wash when you have bad breath , rinse mouth daily with tcp diluted in 5 parts water. Something I do not suffer with. Tastes unpleasent
T.C.P is good for mouth ulcers dab the affected part with undiluted T.C.P. 3 times a day then be brave visit your dentist if it does not clear up quickly

As a young thing I used to suffer with tonsillitis, (still get sore throats (my weak point)) my mum would make me gargle with TC.P. Yeuch.
If I have a sore throat now I sometimes gargle with T.C.P diluted with 5 parts water. I also gargle with salt water if throat bad.

T.C.P can be used for minor burns; sunburn bruises, and minor sprains and chilblains dilute 3 parts to water apply to affected area and allow to dry

Now the best bit those big oozy spots with white pus pimples the ones you squeeze …..NO do not squeeze dab them with T,C.P Every4 hours let them dry. The spots will dry up and you will not be left with craters, much better than a good squeeze to release the puss (not so much fun) no I do not
have a spotty face as a teenager I only had a few.
Well thanks for reading my op about T.C.P I hope you do not have the cause to use it…….. thanks Mary
