A friend of mine uses honey to treat her eczema. Then she wraps it up before going to bed. It works for her. Kids love honey water. A teaspoon of honey in a cup of warm water makes a delicious drink.
Manuka honey is said to be the best.
It is great for sore throats too. A word of caution though, honey should not be given to children below 1 year old. Try searching the web here Search the Web.
