The Super Bowl is over and here are some tips on how homeopathy can be support in recovery, for players and fans alike.
The first and well-known is Arnica. It is useful in case of excessive work or excessive physical effort accompanied by a feeling of contusion, bruising or pain. But after the match, there must be real bruises, not just feelings. Muscle and joint injuries, eye bruisesĀ and concussions are all indications for Arnica.
We saw that Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes injured his right ankle. Homeopathy also has something to offer. Both Rhus Toxicodendron and Ruta are remedies that can be useful for players with sprains and strains. Rhus flow is more indicated when there are sprains. Everything looks good while the injured joint is still warm and moving. When it gets cold, pain and stiffness begin. Ruta, similar to Rhus tox, is indicated for players with an injured joint that hurts more when at rest and in the cold and feels better when it is warm and during movement. But Rhus tox would be better for players with dislocation, and Ruta with strains, and injuries of the periosteum as well.
And something for the fans, at the end. A hangover is a common symptom the day after the Super Bowl. For those who overindulged in food last night or that bottle of beer was really too much, Nux Vomica could be use to stimulate person to get rid of headaches, upset stomachs and general bad moods today.
