I knew a nurse that would use a vinegar and honey or royal jelly concoction of her own on wounds and red areas and I wish I knew what all was in it. Many wounds would heal with people never doing any bedrest. (The doctors backed her as long as patients didn't have any complaints.) Nobody ever claims vinegar does miricles but all quads should drink some once every few days. It is another of those anti-infectives. Like anything else you use as a medication, keep track of how you use it. I've heard it used by paras after they intermittant cath themselves by injecting it mixed with sterile water and drawing it back out with a syring. I think someone in an early e-mail asked how you test the Ph of your urine. You can buy Ph test strip at any Rx. You dip it in a urine sample and after 10 seconds you match the color to the the colors on the dispenser to establish your Ph. You can save yourself a lot of doctor visits with anti-infectives. I think, if you have an aid to help you, you can learn what you can do to feel good without needing strong anti biotics and pain meds.

The idea is to find a balance. Even using them topically is common in some books on healing. I don't know which wine or vinegar is best for which infection, but I'm certain there is a book on it. many vinegars are delightful tasting and very good for you. Chianti wine is suppose to be served warm with honey but I've heard it is good for skin problems. Explains the taste. Let me know what you find out if you decide to get into it. My arthritis is not responding to anything.
