Experiences with

Arnica

I know Arnica shouldn't be taken orally with anti coagulants but would it be ok to use topically as a cream for leg pain?

I've now found that Arnica cream is the only thing that works and I also think the skin returns to it's normal colour more quickly too. It's cheap if you find it in B&M, Home Bargains type shops too.

She does get a massage with magnesium oil and arnica - arms and legs. Magnesium oil stings a lil so never put it on her back. I need advice on what folks do for stiffness , cause muscle relaxants are not advised for everyday / long term use. Regards, -j

Long story short, my father went to a neighbour who came with pads and bandages and arnica and other homeopathic remedies and very kindly dressed it as best she could, while I tried to remain conscious! Pain. Shock. Nausea. Yuc!!!

I use a high percentage arnica cream which helps heal slightly faster (in about a week). Does anyone else have better solutions? I have read that collagen supplements are not particularly effective, but welcome your thoughts and experience.

Would arnica cream help and is there a simple explanation that I can give? Many thanks Is

Does anyone know if arnica has a similar interaction? Should I ask the pharmacist next time I am in? I just knew arnica as something that is traditionally rubbed on bruises and hadn't really expected it to work. Thanks for any help.

Hi I'm 69 on aspirin and umpteen heart meds my problem is I bruise so easily on my hands and arms I've used arnica which helps a bit, also I've tried hirudoid gel and that helps a bit I just get so concerned about the bruises dr said its because my skin is thinner as I age bloods show satisfactory results

What we do - rub arnica around the area. - and he takes paraceutomal 3-4 times a day and now, having spoken to the team last week, we're switching to Codomol 3-4/day. Hoping this will lighten things and help reduce whatever swelling/pain might be there.

Am moisturizing arms and legs and just ordered arnica cream. Can I expect a reduction in this awful bruising steroid side effect as I taper down from medrol?? Am currently at 18,5 mgs. Thx.

I managed to finish my route , then home to ice it, arnica cream and hot coffee. Never a dull moment 🙈

I usually take Arnica but it's not enough anymore. Anyone have any remedies that have helped them? Thanks x

Collected the bling and finishers’ goody bag - more beer, water, fresh fruit, protein bar, nibbles and arnica gel 😂 Free massages were also on offer, but the queue was humongous so we skipped it and caught the vaporetto back to the hotel. Now for a shower, then go and find a nice lunch.

I always use arnica gel and have done for yrs but thought I would try something different, so I bought some of ebay it arrived today, I took it out of packet and just left it on the table to use after my shower, then my son picked it up to have a look what it was and said why am I buying drug cream

We had a nasty car accident last week ( elderly gentleman driving a large Dormobile from Europe had no idea of the rules of single- track- driving here in the HIghlands of Scotland - I felt quite sorry for him) I have rather spectacular bruising of right breast - Arnica has been great help - and three

I have used magnesium spray on my sore muscles, have Epsom Salts baths, and use muscle rub creams (Arnica, Biofreeze). The pains increased after my Moderna vaccine; I was hoping it was a side effect from the vaccine, but 3 weeks later the pains are still extreme, especially at night.

I been using arnica gel but not sure it still working as good as it used to. The worst of my pain is elbows, knees, ankles and feet. I did find one called fibro cream which I was hoping to try but out of stock everywhere. Any recommendations or own experience very welcome.

I preceeded to take arnica and go on my way. After the wedding we travelled further to see son in SD. I was exhausted, and was feeling like I had a UTI. Fast forward to return home, we unloaded I was having severe pain in my groin,shoulder and hip.
