Thumbs up Try Arnica oil or cream/ detox tea

Hi Sassy -
Glad things are better. There is a good massage oil (also comes in cream form) that is made from ARNICA. This stuff is amazing in promoting healing to a surface wound, bruise or scar line.
I even use it after my port is accessed and the little bruise goes away almost overnight.
You would have to check ingredients to make sure there is nothing you are allergic to, but really think there would be no problem.

As for the teas - the main detox one I use is called:

Daily Detox (comes in two formulas - I and II)
Certified Organic, caffeine free

Costs about $6 for 30 sachets/bags
Here is a web site with more info and ordering:

It is very gently on my system and also helps keep me "regular." I normally only use it once a day.

Otherwise there are other makes of "detox" type teas, some of which I have used before, but they are not consistently available so I have settled on this Brand that I can find locally.

Happy healing!
