I'm not sure whether it helps because it is an experimental therapy. It is better to see a naturopath to know if black salve really helps.

Black salve is a paste, poultice, or ointment made of various herbs. It's applied directly to areas on the body with the hope of burning away or "drawing out" cancer.
Black salve is commonly made with zinc chloride or the flowering North American plant bloodroot (Sanguinaria canadensis). Bloodroot contains a powerfully corrosive alkaloid called sanguinarine.
Black salves are classified as escharotics because they destroy skin tissue and leave behind a thick scar called an eschar.
Black salve was commonly used during the 18th and 19th centuries to chemically burn off tumors that were isolated to the top layers of skin. It has been promoted and used by naturopaths as an alternative cancer treatment with dubious results.
Scientific studiesTrusted Source doesn't support the claims that black salve is an effective treatment for melanoma and other types of skin cancer. On the other hand, some alternative medical practitioners believe black salve:
reduces excess fluid
enhances oxygen flow to the brain
decreases all malignancies in the body
strengthens enzyme structure
Every single one of these claims is unsubstantiated.
Isotroin 20 mg Capsule and Tretiva 40 mg Capsule medications benefits in the treatment of cystic acne or nodular acne that has previously not responded to any other kinds of treatment. It reduces the creation of facial oil and stops hardening of the skin and give you Healthy Skin. If acne is not treated correctly, it can cause permanent scarring.

Available scientific evidence does not support claims that salves are effective in treating cancer or tumors. In fact, some ingredients may cause great harm. There have been numerous reports of severe burns, disfigurement, and permanent scarring from some of these salves

Is soursop a cancer cure

Sadly no it is not. Maybe it would help as a preventive treatment or for slow-moving cancer. Same with Keto diet. However, for any type of aggressive cancer, it will not be effective.
