Verrucas

Verrucas can be stubborn and recurring, yet often respond well to homeopathy. By treating the underlying cause as well as the symptoms, homeopathic remedies help to boost your immune system and reduce your susceptibility, to prevent the symptoms returning in the future.

Select the remedy from the list below which most closely matches your particular symptoms:

  •      Antimonium crud 6c - Horny verrucas associated with a callus
  •      Causticum 6c - Painful verrucas that may bleed or ulcerate
  •      Natrum carb 6c - Ulcerated verrucas on tips of toes that are sensitive to touch
  •      Nitric acid 6c - Large, jagged, itchy or stinging verrucas that may bleed on touching
  •      Sepia 6c - Large, hard, black verrucas that may have hairs in them
  •      Thuja 6c - Soft, fleshy, cauliflowerlike verrucas that ooze moisture or bleed easily
  • Take one pill every morning and evening for up to three weeks and apply Thuja tincture directly to the verruca and cover with a plaster twice daily. You can buy these remedies and tincture in a good health food store or pharmacy or from a homeopathic pharmacy such as Helios.

    If you don’t experience improvement within three weeks, then you’ll need to book a homeopathic consultation for constitutional treatment to address the underlying problem.
