Homeopathy for a boil

In general, it can be assumed that medical treatment in the presence of a furuncle leads to success much faster in direct comparison to homeopathy. Furthermore, possible risks can only be effectively avoided by a professional opening and the subsequent intake of an antibiotic. However, the time until the next possible doctor’s appointment can be bridged by using various home remedies and substances from the field of homeopathy.

Patients who suffer from a boil and want to treat it themselves should observe some rules of conduct. Regardless of the exact location of the furuncle, under no circumstances should the boil be pushed around. Otherwise there is the danger that the pus inside the furuncle empties inwards, the bacterial pathogens enter the bloodstream and blood poisoning (sepsis) occurs.

In addition, maintaining proper hygiene is one of the most important measures in the treatment of a furuncle.Even before the beginning of a boil treatment by homeopathy, the skin surface at the affected area must be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected. The affected patients should also make sure that the boil is never touched with their fingers. Failure to do so can lead to the spread of germs and serious diseases.

For this reason, it is recommended that protective gloves are always worn even when a boil is treated by homeopathy. In general, various substances that can be attributed to homeopathy are suitable for the treatment of furuncle. Since a furuncle is an inflammatory and highly infectious disease, anti-inflammatory thyme can help to positively influence the healing process.

Before use, a few drops of high-quality essential thyme oil should be drizzled into approximately one tablespoon of warm water. Afterwards, the thyme oil can be applied to the boil with the help of a sterile compress. Tea tree oil can also be used as an alternative to thyme oil.

In addition, medicinal healing earth is one of the most well-known substances from the field of homeopathy that can be used to treat a furuncle. The effectiveness of the healing earth is based on its ability to bind toxins in the body and then transport them to the outside. The treatment of a furuncle is usually carried out with a porridge made of healing earth and boiled tap water.

This porridge can then be wrapped in a small cloth or compress and placed on the affected part of the body. The effect of this homeopathic treatment method can be increased by adding one or two drops of tea tree oil to the healing earth porridge. In the case of a severely reddened boil, the homeopathic treatment with the help of belladonna can help to alleviate the symptoms.

Atropa belladonna (in English: black deadly nightshade) is one of the poisonous substances, but can have an impressive effect in the treatment of a furuncle. In this context, belladonna can be taken in globules or drops. If used correctly and strictly following the dosage instructions, the occurrence of serious side effects can be almost completely excluded.

The effectiveness of Belladonna in the treatment of furuncle is based primarily on its anti-inflammatory properties. In addition, hepar sulfuris is considered a particularly suitable substance from the field of homeopathy for the treatment of furuncles. As a remedy for purulent processes, lime sulphur liver offers a particularly wide range of applications. When used regularly, a significant improvement in symptoms can usually be observed within a few days. Furuncles that do not heal properly despite treatment attempts that have already been made can also be helped by Silicea to relieve the symptoms in the long term and to promote the healing process.
