An internal medicine, loloh made from physic nut is used for a baby that has a fever and is prepared by grinding the leaves with Balinese onion that has been baked slightly, plus salt. If a person ha gas pains he may be treated with a poultice, uwap, made by grinding the leaves of keliki with rice that has been soaked in water, onion, and fennel. This is put on the stomach. If a person has difficulty urinating, a leaf is removed from the plant and a bit of the latex that is exuded is put on his navel. If the problem persists, a loloh is made by squeezing the leaves with baked onion and salt. Hot water is added, the material strained, and administered as a drink when cool. The latex from keliki is well known as a kind of instant bandage for a cut. Just pull off a leaf and let the latex drip on the wound.
