Q. I have enjoyed reading about home remedies on your Web site and would like to share mine. Dip a bleeding (cut-nicked-sliced or whatever) finger in ground coffee and the bleeding stops. If after the first dip, it still shows some blood, dip it in again and bandage it.
A Lebanese friend told me that it is used all the time in his home. Maybe it’s the caffeine. Regardless, it has always worked for me.
A. Thanks for surprising us with a brand new home remedy for minor cuts. We have collected several others, including ground black pepper, cayenne pepper and ground sage.
