For Injuries

A- Medium External Injuries (Twisted ankle, knee, wrist, etc.)

-Some Turmeric powder (this is a yellow powder used in cooking) - about 1/2 tea spoon

-Pour some Mustard Oil -About 1/8th teaspoon. The intent is to keep the mixture hard like pizza dough.

-If no cuts/wounds, add a couple of pinches of table salt (Himalayan Salt is better)

Put this mixture on medium heat till turmeric colour changes becomes dark-brown to black

Let it cool a bit and add Egg-White about the same amount as the mixture (We don't want to get egg-white cooked)

Now put and spread this mixture on a shrink-wrap to cover the affected area. Put it on the affected area and wrap as firmly as you can without blocking blood flow and keep warm. Leave for overnight, then make a fresh one.

B- Mostly for Internal, but can be used for severe external injuries

If injuries are internal, Allah (God) forbid, slip/accident etc. then we use this. Turmeric-Milk (Golden Milk) has many other health benefits as well, like sleep disorders, etc.

- 1.5 cup of milk

- About 1/8 teaspoon of Fresh Turmeric or its Powder let it boil on medium heat till it reduces to 1.0 cup

- Add liquid honey and drink once in the morning and once before sleeping.

(Should drink while it is as hot as one can drink)

To enhance its flavour / taste, you may add other herbs like, green cardamom, fennel seeds, cinnamon, star anise, mint, clove, etc. 

C- Mild external injuries (Muscle Pulled/Strained)

Olive oil massage of the affected area helps softening and makes muscle more flexibility.

Additionally

Allah has put this quality in animals that our body parts get strengthened with the same body part of the animals. This is one of the saying of the final prophet Mohammad (Peace be upon him). We do that a lot. One thing I would humbly suggest is to eat from the animals that Allah has made permissible to eat and preferably Halal/Kosher compliance meat.

The alternative medicine practitioners in our country highly recommend soup of goat's neck or cow's tail. They also recommend to keep the injured part warm and not applying ice/cold water.
