How to use Black Salve

The medical definition of "cure" is the non-reoccurrence of
pathology within five years after treatment. By the very definition
used by orthodox medicine, Cansema is empirically a proven cure for
skin cancer for the majority of those who use the product according
to these instructions.

1. PREPARATION

First, as stated earlier, the user may want to have a biopsy or
other diagnostic procedure performed to ascertain whether or not
there is, in fact, skin cancer. Many people, on the observation
that they have a "mole" or similar skin marking that is growing and
getting darker, have elected to use Cansema anyway. After all,
Cansema is selective in its action and will only "go after"
neoplastic (cancerous) tissue.

Healthy tissue will only redden and become mildly irritated when
Cansema is applied. This decision is entirely at the discretion of
the user; there is no danger, toxic or otherwise, of applying
Cansema to healthy tissue, although doing so is simply a waste of
the product. In addition, if you are targeting more than one
growth, do one at a time.

2. APPLICATION

Cansema comes in a 1/4 oz. container. The product has the
consistency of a thick, moist paste. It can easily be self-applied
with the fingers and should be spread over the lesion or cancerous
tissue in a thin covering, almost lightly "caked."

The applied area will start to tingle shortly afterwards --
anywhere between 5 minutes to 6 hours after the initial
application. (In fact, if you feel "nothing" after three to six
hours, it is most likely that nothing more will happen: Cansema has
failed to come into direct contact with the cancer. After 24 hours,
you will want to remove the Cansema and reapply, repeating this
process, until the Cansema can reach and "grab" the underlying
aberrant growth.)

In some cases, there is a burning sensation with larger lesions, so
it is important to have ibuprofen, or other non-prescription pain
killer, available during the process. Note: the moment the eschar
falls out, usually within 6-10 days of the initial application, the
pain will immediately stop.

Areas larger than a square centimeter (or bigger than a U.S.
"dime") may require even stronger analgesics, which, being
prescription, will require the services of a cooperative physician.
Otherwise, observing good "pain management" may require that the
cancer be "taken out in stages." This involves applying a small
amount to the edge of the growth, waiting for the sensations to die
down as the eschar process begins, and then repeating this process
on an adjacent area of skin until the entire area has been covered.

Observe this same procedure if you are targeting more than one
growth. Do one at a time. In this fashion, any discomfort is
minimized because the entire process, which can at that point last
several days, has been spread out over time.

This bears repeating: never apply Cansema to a large area, unless
you are under a physician's care and advice. It is also a good idea
to place a bandage over the area, particularly if the forming
eschar is on a place on the body that might be subject to being
bumped or bruised in the course of daily activity. Another thing to
consider is that Cansema can stain clothing, so for practical,
aesthetic, and cleanliness issues, covering the site is a good
idea. 

" . . . I applied Cansema and no eschar appeared! . . . What do I
do now?" Cansema has to come into contact with the target cancer
area in order to work. It has transdermal properties (i.e. skin
penetrating ability) However, a couple of simple tricks can also
speed up the process and/or reduce the number of applications
required to "reach" a skin cancer that is well below the epidermis.

Most people don't need these techniques if the skin cancer is close
to the skin surface.


3. MANAGING THE ESCHAR

After 24 hours remove the bandage. Using hydrogen peroxide (H2O2 -
3%, available in most drug stores) and a Q-Tip, very lightly go
over the lesion, removing any excess Cansema and other organic
debris (i.e. pus, serous fluid, etc.) If a full pus formation is
not evident or is incomplete, repeat step 2 and leave the new
application on for an additional 24 hours before proceeding. 

Normally one application is sufficient for small tumors (the size
of a pencil eraser), but no more than three applications are
required for larger tumors. There are instances, however, when
repeated applications of Cansema are required because of
"accessibility" problems - although this can be limited using the
techniques cited in the preceding section.

In order to initiate the escharization process, however, and begin
killing the cancer, it is vital that Cansema be able to penetrate
and reach the subject site. This can take multiple (three or more)
applications, though one to two applications is more common. After
the eschar has formed, keep it well protected.

You can add Vitamin E, but know that this is better to use once you
reach the decavitation stage. Normally the bandage can be left on
for a period of 10 days: however, in advanced cases there is
considerable "drainage," that is, a steady emission of pus. In the
sense that Cansema kills the cancer cells and takes certain
leukocytes (defending white blood corpuscles) with it in the
process of eliminating the neoplasm, it is a supportive agent: that
is, drainage should not be viewed as abnormal.

The range of possible response is very little pus and only one
bandage ever required, to a regular change of bandages required in
the case of advanced melanomas. Your case will be somewhere
in-between.

4. REMOVING THE ESCHAR

The eschar itself represents the death of the neoplasm, and this
occurs shortly after application. Everything that follows from
there is the body's own reparative responses.

From here on out, the body knows exactly what to do and wastes no
time doing it. However, to us the days and weeks that follow may
seem lengthy. The next stage is the removal of the eschar, or scab.
This usually happens within 10 days after initial application,
unless the case is advanced and/or cancer(s) cover a large area of
the body.

As with any scab, let it fall out when it is ready. Do not pull it
out prematurely, if you remove the eschar premature, you further
risk developing scar tissue.

5. DECAVITATION & "HEALING OVER"

After the eschar comes out, the pit or "decavitation" can look raw
and unsightly.

Nonetheless, if kept covered and the everyday principles of good
hygiene are followed, there will be no threat of secondary
infection. If you work in an area that is less than clean, however,
you might want to have hydrogen peroxide (available in any good
drug store) handy and apply it liberally to the site once a day to
kill any invasive germs. Over a period of a few months, the entire
area will be healed with only some "depigmentation" or scar tissue.

The result is rarely more unsightly or unaesthetic than if surgery
had been chosen instead. Only in rare conditions does the cancer
"come back" to the area applied, unless there is underlying
metastasis. To be sure that the area is clear of cancer, many users
elect to initiate a second, or even third, application after they
get to the "heal over" stage.

We take a dim view to doing this indiscriminately because the risk
of scarring is increased with each new reapplication. However, with
particularly aggressive forms of cancer, such as melanoma, a user
may want to weigh the potential advantages of re-application,
particularly if the initial cancer is located somewhere on the body
that is not usually aesthetically sensitive or viewed in public
(i.e. on the back, upper leg, etc.).

None of this should be taken as a substitute for using some of the
better cancer marker tests that are now available from qualified,
licensed physicians. In other words, if you don't need more than
one application, why do it. In other words, once Cansema has
finished its work, there are normally no residual cells from the
original neoplasm. This rule finds more exceptions the larger the
original cancer growth is, the deeper it is beneath the skin, the
more instances of skin cancer the subject has experienced, and/or
the more extensive a person's history of skin cancer is or has
been.

Remember, you may need to repeat this process if the skin cancer is
sufficiently extensive such that residual cancer cells have been
left behind after you finish your first "cycle." (Although, this
same admonition would exist if you had your skin cancer surgically
removed.)

To be on the side of caution, have your health care practitioner
check the site to see if there is any remaining cancer. There are
excellent antigen marker tests that your physician can utilize to
determine if you have a "clean bill of health."
