Minutus

I forgot to answer, sorry, the healing in all 4 cases was obviously
different b/c different people but in all = 3 mths when they had a scan the
tear was considered so small they were advised to NOW leave it. liz

Wow, wonderful!
Do you (or anyone) have experience with remedies re-building cartilage
that's been "worn away", where person is told they need artificial joint,
simply because of degeneration? I realize this is a different situation, as
it's chronic rather than injury, and I assume that first stop would be to
find their overall chronic remedy, but it occurs to me to wonder what
prognosis or experience might be with this situation?

Spondylose Injections -
Safe and Effective Medicine for Pain & Inflammation

Spondylose is a homeopathic medicine from a German pharmaceutical company,
and contains only plant and mineral preparations. It is injected by a very
fine needle into muscles or joints to releive pain and inflammation. It was
originally made for back pain due to disc degeneration and osteoarthritis.
It will usually produce good releif by the next day. It can be repeated once
or twice a week until there is complete and lasting releif.

This natural medicine is entirely safe. It is not cortisone or any harmful
drug. It is important to realize this medicine stimulates the body to heal
very gently but reliably. The results from a short series of treatments can
be very long-lasting, even in severe cases.

Spondylose is excellent for back pain, disc injury, scar therapy, sciatica,
sprained muscles, strained ligaments, arthritis, tennis elbow, carpal tunnel
syndrome, post-surgical pain, sites of old trauma, and sports injuries. It
can heal torn cartilage as in knee injuries, and will often make surgery
unnecessary.

The amazing results seen daily with this medicine is due to these properties
of the ingredients:

Arnica montana - the mountain daisy moves stagnant blood and gets fluid
congestion out of tissues, allowing blood flow to improve, removing wastes
and bringing oxygen and nutrition in to speed healing.
Hypericum perfoliatum - St. John's Wort is used for nerve pain, numbness and
trauma. Improved nerve tone promotes normal tissue function.
Symphytum officinalis - comfrey leaf contains allantoin which heals
fractures, repairs cartilage, and repairs torn connective tissue.
Valeriana - is a muscle relaxant, sedative and pain releiver.
Euphorbium - spurge olive is for rheumatism and arthritic inflammation.
Bryonia alba - wild hops are a muscle relaxant and powerful
anti-inflammatory.
Rosa canina - rosehips for vitamin C and bioflavenoids to heal connective
tissue.
Silica - is a mineral which can dissolve scars and promote recovery of
tissue strength
Calcium, Phosphorus & Potassium - minerals needed for injury repair.

Hi Shannon,
None of Allen's suggested remedies cover people without cartilage in their knees, do you think? I advised my prospective client to take Flax Seed oil thinking that the omega-3 oils will help soften and thicken the tissues. I was stupid to say I could help him, huh?
Blessings,
Ellen

Bob hi, Yes I have had experience with treating Perthes.
I will email you direct if you want BUT you would have to start with either
Tuberculinum / syphilinum / and the rest according to a Vannier system B/c
the condition has to include a lesional and drainage and miasmic as well as
constitutional to turn around the damage and loss.

Hi Liz,
(BTW, check my signature - this is Shannon, not Bob, FWIW!)
I would love to have what you can easily send. But from a quick web search,
I'm not sure the term Perthe's applies to the people I have in mind. One is
only middle-aged, and ascribes his condition (in one knee only) to an old
injury; another is elderly, with severe osteoporosis (and told that the
spinal cartilage is disintegrating along with the bone?) and all sorts of
health issues (and my remedy choices are not working nearly well enough
right now...). But your information might help broaden my understanding of
the issue and how it could be managed?

Thanks!
Shannon
