I have noticed, that many pain medications that are used in homeopathy,
are related to poisons without the toxicity and dangers is this true.
I have seen much help going against nerve pain, by using certain
products like poison ivy, which is Rhus toxicodendron.

As usual substance used depends on what type of pain.

I have used Lyc, Nat.m, Sepia, Silica etc. for painful conditions lots
of times - and none of these is exactly a poison-

Of course poisons are esp. suitable for pains, because they cause a
lot of pain in general-

At the same time chronic pain is esp. handled with metals given their
long, subtle and slow action in the body-

Not surprising when you consider the principles that homeopathy is
based on, and how Hahnemann theorized it to work: remedy creating a
(brief and strong, but easily overcome by the body) *disease* which is
similar to (tho different in important ways) what the body is suffering
from. So--in order to cure homeopathically, the substance must be able
to create a "disease" state. And especially horrible substances are
able to cure especially horrible disease states! If and where
indicated, that is.

Toxicity depends on quantity and form.
For example common salt
A lot of it will kill!
Small amount of it has nutritional value and is essential to health.
Homoeopathic quantities are health restoring (if used according to rules of Homeopathy oof course.)
