Guest guest Posted September 2, 2005 Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 Hi Everyone, I am hoping for some fast input. My daughter and son-in-law came to visit for one last time before he leaves for Iraq. Eric (SIL) was doing pushups and my mom's dog thought to join in-not a good thing! They head butted-HARD-and Eric now has a black eye swollen shut. We'd like to get him somewhat fixed up before he has to return to base Monday. I feel so bad about this. I've got all kinds of herbs. Would arnica or comfrey be of any use? Thanks in Advance, Linda P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 2, 2005 Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 Here's one I found, hope it helps... Black Eyes Dilute 1 drop of geranium and 1 drop of chamomile in 2 teaspoons of witch hazel and blend together well. Now add this to 1 tablespoon ice-cold water, mix well, soak some cotton wool pads into the mixture . Close your eye and apply pad to the eye lid and surrounding area.

I only had German Chamomile, not Roman. I hope that works with the Geranium. Linda P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 Hello all, I am new to the group and have been ill alot lately so I just read the posts most of the time. I am amazed at the knowledge everyone has here so I hope you guys can help me. I am a medical mess. I have Chrohn's disease(intestional problems) and suffer from the worse form of depression. I had cervical cancer years ago, but am now cancer free so this isn't an issue. I also suffer from acid reflux and think very soon they will tell me I have stomach ulcers. My 15 year old suffers from acid reflux and migraines a lot-any advise would greatly be appreciated as we know nothing of herbal issues -Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 For acid reflux, you need to find out what foods trigger it. For me, there is one major trigger: Pizza hut pizza, one slice of that and I am doomed or 3-4 slices of any pizza. Some people get it from dairy products, everyone has a trigger food(s). What works for me is not eating at night and eating less fattening foods. For chrohn's disease, dairy is a no-no (milk, cheese, yogurt, eggs, icecream).alissa4621 <alissa4621 wrote: Hello all,I am new to the group and have been ill alot lately so I just readthe posts most of the time.
