Our advice and expert pharmacy opinions

In the event of bruising following a shock or blow

Particularly effective in cases of "black eye " or bruising of toes or fingers, take Ledum palustre 5 CH: 5 granules every hour, spaced out as the condition improves, over 4 days.
Here, it's worth combining Arnica montana 7 CH: 5 granules to be taken at the same time and in the same way as Ledum palustre.

Arnica Montana has a special place among medicinal plants, and is one of the best-known in homeopathy. Its yellow flowers are harvested to make mother tinctures and decoctions for external use.

Available in a variety of formats, Arnica is used internally in homeopathic preparations to treat bruising and inflammation, and externally as a massage oil, spray, cream or gel to treat joint pain and varicose veins.
