Hi I thought I would share a happy story with you (was going to say happy ending but thought it best not too!!)
My husband trapped his finger in the car last wednesday (not the happy bit) and it was one of those trappings where you had to open the door to get it out
When I finished work a few hours later and he told me it was very swollen, and bruising and he said it was absolutely thumping with pain. He thought he would probably lose the nail. A while later I remembered reading about helichrysum and even though I thought it would be too good to be true, decided to mix some up for him. I didn't need much, it was only the end of a finger after all. As I was mixing it, I have to admit, I thought how the *%^! could 3 drops of oil make any difference but carried on! I mixed 2 ml of rosehip carrier with 2 drops of helichrysum and 1 of chamomile for the inflammation. He smothered it on that evening and was sure he wouldnt be able to sleep, so I told him to use more in the night and then again in the morning and during the day. Next morning he told me he had slept all night, it didn't hurt at all and the bruising had really trully gone down a lot. Wow!
He used the oil 3 times that day and in the evening on Thursday still no pain, and even less bruising. By Friday night having used it twice more, there was a pencil thin line bruise down the middle of the nail, no swelling and no pain. He could tap his finger on the table really hard and it was fine.
Amazing!
