Minutus

Years ago my son was moving a dresser and the tall mirror part of dresser hit
the light
in center of room..a small piece of glass went into very near his eye. At
hospital i gave him 200c arnica every day minutes waiting for the doctor. i'd
pour in paper cups over and over to change the potency. I think i did this
about 10 times.... They were worried about his tear duct being messed
up..blocked..and told him to go to eye specialist in morning. I called the
homeopathic doctor in the morning and his wife who was also a homeopathic
practioner...she said to take sul acid 200 which i gave to him. Do not know
why? Anyway, he went to eye doctor and the doctor was amazed that he wasn't
black and blue all over his face...and his tear duct was fine. But why did she
prescribe
Sulphuric Acid?

"removes long lasting black and blue spots with soreness and stiffness
of the part after trauma, follows Arnica"

That is from either Clarke, Boericke or Phatak.

Hi Carol

I have cut and pasted below some of the indications for Sulph Ac in this
sort of injury. I have used it in the case of a cat that was hit by a
vehicle and had damage around the eye, including the actual eye.

Allen Keynotes:

Bad effects from mechanical injuries, with bruises, chafing and livid
skin; prostration (Acet. ac.).

In contusion and laceration of soft parts it vies with Calendula.

Follows well : after, Arn. with bruised pain, livid skin and profuse
sweat;
Allen - A primer of MM
(Results of bruises, especially with blunt instruments)
Boericke:

Intra-ocular haemorrhage following traumatism

Choudhuri:

We use it to remove the bad effects of mechanical injuries, such falls,
blows, bruises, etc.

Clarke:

Trauma is another indication for Sul. ac.; it follows Arn. in bruises of
soft parts
