I used Bloodroot Paste for a few days and got an eschar. How could this happen?
Bloodroot paste, in a minor of cases, will behave like an escharotic preparation on some people. In other words, if you apply bloodroot paste to a skin cancer, you can get a reaction, just you see on the Cansema page, killing the cancer and forming a scab – which has a morphology so specific we refer to the scab as an “eschar.” Again, this happens in a minority of cases. Bloodroot paste is never as deep or as thorough as Cansema in getting rid of neoplastic growths, but if it happens, count your blessings. Bloodroot paste, like Cansema, never removes a growth that has any good business being there. Why this happens in some people and not others is still a mystery, but you should not be alarmed if it happens to you. It’s a good thing, and you can study the stages that an eschar goes through on the Cansema page.
