Homeopathy for swellings after surgery

Treating a swelling after surgery with homeopathy serves primarily as a supportive measure. Depending on the type of swelling, different globules are used, which is why a consultation at the pharmacy or with a knowledgeable doctor is advisable. In the case of pressure-sensitive, bluish swelling after an operation, globules such as Arnica are prescribed, usually in a D12 potency.

Here, about 5 globules should be taken 3 times a day. Arnica is especially popular in the case of swelling after dental surgery, as it can also minimize inflammation. In the case of an operation performed close to the bone or a joint (for example, the knee joint), homeopathy can also reduce the swelling after the operation.

In this case the remedy Ruta should be used, which should be taken 3 times daily in potency D12 for 5 days. For larger swellings the Globuli Ledum can be helpful, which should also be taken 3 times daily for 5 days in a D12 potency.
