Burn treatment

[Robyn]

Hi Jas
At the time Parimal Banerji published his work (1995), he says that he had
the opportunity to treat more than a thousand cases of burns of different
degrees. He has not had a single case that has ended up with tetanus or
septic infection even where conditions were most unhygeinic with every
possibility of various types of contaminations. From these treatments he has
found the following to be successful:

CANTHARIS 6 - as soon as the burn occurs, it should ideally be covered with
cotton to exclude air immediately (this prevents the formation of blisters).
If Cantharis 6 is available, soak a layer of cotton with it to cover the
entire area of the injured skin. Cantharis 200 may be used in its place.
If neither of these are available, then a thick layer of petroleum jelly may
be applied to exclude the air.
Application of Cantharis 6 or 200 will stop the intolerable burning

CANTHARIS 200
Indicated at all stages of burns or scalds
Superficial or deep ulcerations or blisters from burn or scalds
When the burn occurs, a dose giben immediately by mouth relieves the
atrocious pain and burning in half an hour
Ulcers from burn or scald at any stage

When possible to attend immediately after the burn, it is given every one
hour till the burning is relieved. In more acute burning, it is to be used
more frequently. When the burning pains are over and the blisters or
ulcerations are formed, Cantharis 200 and Ars alb 200 are used alternately<
one being in a day or maybe< one in the morning and the other in the
evening, according to the severity of the case. This treatment gives
complete protection against tetanus and sepsis. Cantharis 200 is almost a
specific for burn.

The potencies mentioned above are the optimum potencies based on his
research and experiments with other potencies of these drugs.
