Ledum Pallustre

The best way to deal with tick bites is not to be bitten at the first place. Those little critters can be stopped by long sleeves, gloves, long pants tucked in boots and hats. But sometimes it happens. You were enjoying your golf game, walk in the woods or work in your garden and now you found a tick attached to you. As soon as you see the tick, remove it carefully. Take a drop of tea tree oil and put it on the spot of the bite immediately. Take homeopathic remedy Ledum pallustre to relieve pain from the bite and possibly, prevent long and short term consequences including swelling and bruising. Ledum pallustre is a homeopathic remedy that has been successfully used for insect bites or any other trauma that is associated with thin sharp object.

Ledum Pallustre is helpful for puncture wounds from insect bites, stings, cat bites, and nails. Bruise at the site of puncture wound.  Affected area feels cold to touch but is better from cold compresses, ice and worse from pressure. Swelling, spotty rash and twitching of muscles around the wound. Ledum pallustre can also be useful for arthritis, gout and black eye.

For acute injury (just happened recently) a good potency to use is 30C. For chronic problems or if you have tried 3-7 doses of the remedy and did not get relief for your symptoms, call your homeopathic practitioner for advice and suggestions for a remedy.

Have a tick free day!
