From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

For Isaiah had said -In the parallel place in Kings the statement in these two verses is introduced before the account of the miracle on the sun-dial, and before the account of his recovery2 Kings 20:7-8. The order in which it is introduced, however, is not material. Let them take a lump of figs -The word used here (דבלהdebēlâh) denotes “a round cake” of dried figs pressed together in a mass1 Samuel 25:18. Figs were thus pressed together for preservation, and for convenience of conveyance. And lay it for a plaster -The word used here (מרחmârach) denotes properly to rub, bruise, crush by rubbing; then to rub, in, to anoint, to soften.
