Cured: Girl, 4, saved from life-threatening nosebleed after salted pork is put up her nostrils (Mail on Sunday)
more at link aboveA girl [in Detroit] with a life-threatening nosebleed was cured when doctors put salted pork up her nostrils.
Slices of the meat from a local supermarket were cut into narrow strips and placed inside the four-year-olds nasal cavities.
Over the next 48 hours, her condition improved and she left hospital with no further bleeding.
Before the unusual treatment, the girl, who has a rare bleeding disorder, had been in intensive care for five days with surgeons unable to stop the blood loss.
