Boiron Arnica Montana 9C for Muscle Pain, Stiffness, Swelling from Injuries & Bruises - 80 Pellets

I bought this product because I was about to undergo a procedure and wanted to decrease the post-procedure bruising. It was truly amazing how quickly my bruises faded. However, more importantly, I am writing this review to pass along the 'accidental' benefit I received from this product. I am a diabetic and use insulin and other oral meds, I quickly noticed on the second day of using this product that my blood sugar dropped. I decided to continue to test this and have discovered that using Arnica after meals has significantly reduced my blood sugar. I went on to research the use of Arnica for diabetes and discovered that many Homeopathics treat diabetic patients with Arnica (in different doses). I am very encouraged and plan to continue to test this.

Works exactly like it should. Great minimal packaging

I read how Arnica reduces bruising and helps prevents bruises from darkening. I used it before and after a facial surgery. It was amazing. I have used the tube from my pharmacy for everyday bumps and bruises but have never tried these tiny pills. It was amazing how little my face bruised after surgery by using this product.

Is help me for healing my bruises after my accident, I recommend it

I used this prior to getting permanent makeup done! I would recommend!

Arrived quickly and has definitely improved swelling.

I was inn a car accident 16 years this month i broke my neck and had to wear a halo for 6 months so they keep the 4 screws in your head very tight. After 15 years of pain in my head i ffinally discovered it was comming from the dimple over my right eye from the screw in the halo i touched it once and noticed a shooting pain in my head last year but just forgot about it then i accidentally touched it again and this time i remembered it is comming from a llittle dimple above my right eye. I was in a hurry to see my pain managment doctor agaiin so i could tell him i wound where the pain is comming from. But he acted like he was not listening to me and brought me the liittle white pills out of thiis homeopathic drug but they didnt work. I was disapointed i thought he would give me something to numb it and find for sure that is where it was comming from but no just the same old meds i always get. So i decided to go to amazon and find something myself. So i looked at all the stuff that numbs you and i knew it was not strong enough without a presciption so i looked and found a cream that had thousands sold and almost all five star reviews. So i ordered it and it came in two days and it looked familiar i put some on the dimple and all of the pain just went away it was like a miracle i had been living with this pain 15 years. And then i noticed that out of hundreds of products maybe more what i chose was articaa in the cream form the same thing my doctor was giving me the little white pills 4or5 under the toungh. I didnt know it but i bought it in a cream and had no idea it was what he had been giving me in the little pills. And while i am not totally pain free it took about 75 percent away the very first time i put it on. I could not believe it. So if you have pain one of the reviews said she keeps it with her for arthritus. and anything under the skin i think it will work for.
