What diseases can be cured by washing your face with water boiled with longan shells?

Longan is a common snack food. Because of its special properties, it is also called longan. Relatively speaking, the price of longan is higher than that of ordinary food, but you get what you pay for. The nutritional value of longan is very high, which cannot be compared with ordinary food. So, if the longan shells we have eaten are used to boil water directly, can we also use them to wash our faces directly?

Urticaria can also be treated with longan shell

Urticaria, commonly known as "wheals", "hives", etc., is a localized edema reaction caused by dilation of small blood vessels in the skin and mucous membranes and increased permeability, and usually disappears within twenty-four hours.

However, in this case, it is still easy for new rashes to recur, and the course of the disease may last for several days or months. This is also quite common clinically, so we still need to pay attention to prevention in our daily lives. If you suffer from urticaria and it cannot be cured for a long time, we can use longan shells to boil water for bathing for treatment.
