Children’s Throat Infections (Thrush)

“And if a child contracts thrush—a condition in which a child’s tongue turns white— the frog is again a remedy. One presses it to the child’s tongue, and that is the best medicine for this ailment. And it is also a good remedy for stomach ailments: it must be cooked in milk and then taken and swallowed.”
