Arnica Pills for swelling??

Hi Girls are you meant to take one tablet every day pre op of the Arnica for the bruising and swelling???

As just read the instructions and it says 2 pills every 2 hours for the 1st 6 doses. then 4 times daily…just seems a **** of a lot dont you think?? my op is 11 days today.

i took the as pack said, my pc recommended then and had hardly any bruising, and not much swelling but i only took them 3 days before and 3 after… x

I was told not to take anything. Every surgeon must have different rules

When i was dishcharged from hospital tho they sent me home with some anti inflamitry tablets x

My surgeon recommended Arnica,i took them a week before the op and a week after,I had no bruises at all,I did the same when I had surgery on my face,again no bruises,pineapple juice is good to help with the swelling it contains Bromelain which helps to reduce the swelling.xxx

My daughter and I took them as instructed 2 weeks before and 1 week after. Neither of us had any bruises. But I had swelling, but thats just the implant being high. Think thats a natural cause. But it helps.x

i just met with my surgeon again this weekend and he advised 2 a day for 5 days pre-op then 2 on the day and 2 the day after.

There you go then. Thats good.x
