By the way, ARNICA in any form is CHEAP and the results are always fabulous.

Anyone who is undergoing surgery should ask their doctor to provide them with arnica. Even Dr. Oz recommends it! I have used it both for myself and my dogs - tremendous results every time. Arnica is effective for the reduction of bruising, edema, and inflammation associated with surgery. Reduces bleeding and in turn, pain = faster healing and less complications. MANY plastic surgeons carry a brand name of arnica which is dosed days before and after surgery (yellow box, starts with an S - can't recall the name). In terms of topical brands, the best standardized form of Arnica is BruiseStick, which is available commercially in the United States. www.bruisestick.com . You can also buy standardized arnica. Do a little research to find the best one. If your doctor carries it, I'd give him extra points as it shows he cares about the healing process, not just the procedure and the money he makes. Goes to character.
