Lady Umm Qais bint Mihsan (may Allah be pleased with her) says: I heard the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: "You should use Indian aloeswood (oud al-hindi), for it is a cure for seven diseases. For 'uzrah (throat swelling, i.e., diphtheria), it is inserted into the nose, and for pain in the side, it is placed in the mouth." (And the rest of the hadith has already been mentioned.)
