My husband tried ( rather badly) to ride a dirt bike on Friday and smashed
his hand, as well as the bike and the rest of him.  His hand swelled the
worst I have ever seen, and he finally broke down yesterday and applied
cabbage. I don't know if it is broken because he refuses to go to the MD. The
swelling went down but this evening after several hours without cabbage, it
is swollen again.
The 19 yr old son ( the sensible one ) was with him and ran over to his dad
and said " I should have known better then to let you on that thing!".
So another application for cabbage is for dirt bike accidents. Now if we can
find a cure for stupidity!
