Description

 The invention relates to medicine and relates to the production of drugs.

 Mud therapy - use with therapeutic and preventive purposes of therapeutic mud. Depending on the origin and physico-chemical properties, therapeutic mud is divided into three main groups: silt, peat and pseudovolcanic.

 Silt mud is a suitable substance formed in salt (silt sulfide mud) or fresh (sapropel-decaying silt) water during the slow decomposition of dead small animals and plants under water and the interaction of these products with soil, water and salts.

 Peat mud (peat) is formed in swamp-type water bodies from dead plant organisms. For medicinal purposes, acidic mineralized peat with a high degree of decomposition is most valuable.

 Of the various pseudo-volcanic muds, hoc and hydrothermal muds are used for therapeutic purposes.

 Closest to the proposed is the mud mud, which is a crushed rock mixed with water. However, known muds do not have antihistamines.

The essence of the invention is that in the mud for the treatment of patients, consisting of a mixture of crushed rock and water, it is new that shungite powder is taken as rock in the following ratio of components, wt.%:
Shungite powder - 84-86
Drinking Water - Else
The problem solved by this invention is the creation of an effective tool for the treatment of skin diseases.

 The technical result achieved in this case is as follows.

 Healing mud consists of two phases - liquid and solid. The liquid phase (mud solution) is an aqueous solution of mineral salts and organic compounds. The solid phase of the mud consists of a crystalline skeleton and a colloidal fraction.

 The salt composition of the liquid phase of the proposed therapeutic mud includes elements such as K, Ca, Mn, S, Se, etc., which has a beneficial effect on the biophysical processes taking place on human skin. In addition, it is biologically active, since contact with the mineral shungite leads to the structuring of water. Structuring of water implies that as a result of the energetic effect of shungite on water, the molecules of the latter are oriented due to hydrogen bonds into quasicrystalline, ice-like structures. The structured water is close in its properties to intracellular water, which is the basis of protoplasm, and therefore easily penetrates through cell membranes, which leads to the activation of biochemical processes at the cellular level. As a result, mud schungite solution acquires special properties: it actively destroys pathogenic microflora, and also contributes to more efficient absorption of the components contained in it through the skin.

 The schungite material constituting the solid phase of the proposed mud is defined as non-graphitized carbon with a globular supramolecular structure. The main microstructure is a carbon globule. Shungite carbon has a high chemical activity in redox processes. As a result, the proposed mud is a shungite suspension enriched in highly dispersed globular carbon. It has pronounced antihistamines, bacteriostatic and anti-inflammatory properties, which contributes to the healing of affected areas of the skin, reduces itching and inflammation of the skin.

The mud for the treatment of patients is a mixture of separated shungite mineral with a fraction size of less than 0.1 mm and drinking water. It is characterized by the following composition, wt.%:
Example 1
Shungite powder - 84
Drinking Water - 16
Example 2
Shungite powder - 85
Drinking Water - 15
Example 3
Shungite powder - 86
Drinking Water - 14
The claimed content of shungite mineral in the mixture is determined by the optimal thixotropic properties of the suspension, i.e. spreadability on the skin, retention and adherence to the skin.

 Therapeutic mud is prepared as follows.

 Shungite powder and water are placed in a working container, the mixture is thoroughly mixed for 3-5 minutes. The result should be a homogeneous mass without lumps of unmixed shungite powder.

 The proposed therapeutic mud is recommended as a tool with a pronounced physiotherapeutic effect when applied externally to the skin (the effect of deep heating). Dirt is applied with a layer of 1-2 cm on a skin area and covered with a napkin. Duration of application is 20-30 minutes.

 The proposed composition and ratio of components give the mud properties that allow it to be used for external therapy of patients suffering from skin diseases with a microbial-allergic component, since the mud has pronounced anti-inflammatory, antihistamine and bacteriostatic properties. When using mud for medicinal purposes, itching, swelling, and the inflammatory process are reduced.
