When using a Dock leaf, you are right to say tear the leaf slightly. However, rubbing the leaf onto the sting may not always work. The bit of the leaf you need is the juice so after tearing the leaf, rub it between the palms of your hands until you have the watery, green, juice and the rub this over the sting, not the leaf itself.
