HYPERICUM.
The tincture, two drops to the ounce of water, to saturate lint or gauze, and apply. Cover with wool, or at first with oil silk and wool.
Hypericum wounds are acutely painful.
Hypericum, externally draws edges of wounds together, and promotes rapid healing.
Give internally also, half a dozen pellets, three doses, four- hourly.
LEDUM.
For punctured wounds, wounds by rusty nails.
Insect bites.
Animal bites or scratches.
Ledum feels the COLD: yet wounded parts are cold, and are relieved by cold bathing.
(N.B.-In punctured wounds, if pains begin to shoot upwards, and tetanus threatens, go on to Hypericum, internally and externally.) Apply and administer, as for Hypericum.
CALENDULA.
Cuts: rapidly heals, and prevents suppuration.
Apply as above.
