Arnica

One of my friends has recommended Arnica 2 weeks pre op to help bruising & swelling has anyone ever used this?

Yes I took it X didn’t have very much bruising at all x

I took it and had to brusing at all. I took 2 3times a day for a week before and a week after. I only didn’t take it on the day of the op x

I took it (was recommended not to). I took it every 2 hours 6 times on day one, then every 4x a day for a week before surgery. Currently POD5 with no bruising 🙂

I had really bad bruising so I took arnica for 3 days! And kept having nose bleeds and didn’t feel well! When I read the side affects it was because of them they have lots of side affects I would suggest not to take them because they cause more side effects than doing any good! I just stook to a high protein diet and eat a mixture of food and drank plenty and they told me I have healed perfect X

Ah thanks girls. I have e-mailed the nurse that i seen and she has advised me to stay away from any herbal remedies until after my surgery! Awful as i use Herbalife too and take multivitamins everyday so going to end up huge without my shakes ha and already missing my vitamins hah! Suppose be worth it when i have my new boobs :)xx
