Is it salt or just the warm water @SergeantQueen?

Epsom salts are not “salt”, they are magnesium and sulfate. Some also have oils and perfume added.

Right @Zaku. So does it actually have any medicinal properties, like drawing out infections? Or is it the simple act of soaking the ouchie in warm water that’s doing the trick?
