TREATMENT AND PRECAUTIONS
An inflammation of the breast is treated externally as well as internally. For internal treatment Echinaforce has proved to be extremely valuable. The use of arnica tincture and Echinaforce are indicated for external application. Rub them gently on the affected part, alternating between the two remedies. If the area is sensitive, the regular application of warm compresses with mallow or sanicle infusions will achieve faster results. For an even better healing effect, add to the infusion 5-10 drops of Echinaforce and arnica tincture.
Women who are breast-feeding and would like to reduce their milk supply may do so by rubbing the breasts with lavage tincture and taking an infusion of lovage, this herb being excellent for the purpose. In cases of miscarriage or stillbirth the milk will need to be removed with a breast pump until the remedies have decreased the flow. To prevent milk fever and inflammation of the breasts, every effort should be made to stop the production of milk by natural means. We recommend oiling the breasts regularly and, especially, rubbing the nipples with St John’s wort oil or Bio force Cream once or twice a week. This provides the additional benefit of preventing the skin from cracking.
