  8. Cayenne Pepper –Sprinkling a generous amount of powdered cayenne pepper on an open wound helps the blood to clot and for the wound to close faster.

  9. Salt –We understand why you might think that rubbing salt on a wound might make it worse, but salt being a disinfectant, pulls toxins from the open wound to prevent infection and helps to keep an open wound dry by absorbing blood.
