sürmek.

From Ottoman Turkish سورمك (sürmek, “to drive before one, to drive away, to banish, to advance, to sell in open market, to continue, to rub on or against, to shoot out, to protrude”), from Old Anatolian Turkish [script needed] (sür-, “to drive away, to spend time, to go ahead, (for time) to elapse, to rub, to smear”), from Proto-Turkic *sǖr- (“to drive before one, to lead, to drive away”). Although both senses "to drive, to banish" and "to rub" originated from the same root, it was not until the Old Anatolian Turkish era when the verb went through semantic expansion and took on the latter meaning and began to be used in the sense "to cast away disease or ugliness via balms, ointments or medicine".
