pilonidal clarification

I too (as the people in the topic before) have had a pilonidal for about 8 months now. It's flared up twice and been lanced both times. Surgery recommended. I didn't feel the invasive surgery with the month-long healing time was the thing to do. I am now worried because I can feel it getting sore again - I want to take homeopathic measures TODAY. I'm trying to understand the doses and tinctures you are prescribing - when I walk into the health food store, I need to know exactly what I'm looking for. SO - do I only start with Mysterica/myristica at 200c - how often? Also - mercurius solubilis 200c how often? Do I take them together? Also Hepar Sulph 200c - do I take this too? How do I know which level (6, 12, 30, 200) to start at - does my age and weight matter? I would prefer to know exactly what each is for so that I know what I'm putting into my body. I understand that Myristica is for bursting it open - that would be good for mine because mine has never drained. So the objective is: get it open, get it dried. Right? Now - how long to I continue to take the pills after I see that it isn't hurting or flared? Will it reoccur? Do I just keep repeating this same process the rest of my life? I have lots of questions - I'm tired of dealing with this strange and embarrassing phenomenon. PLEASE HELP. Thank you.

Thanks John - last time antibiotics was almost exactly a year ago for a throat infection (very sore throat, swollen tonsils)

-that was probably the last illness I had if I think about it - so - antibiotics were used

I decided to summarize what I understand from the other doctor's post on the other thread so I can keep this all straight. Do you agree with it? How am I to know what kind of person I am?

Hep.Sulph. = quarrelsome
Silicea = sluggish

Myristica 200 = burst
Silicea 6 or 30 - 3x/day = drain for week?
Silicea 200 = 2x/day = for a few days? or one day?

Is this only for the sluggish person?

Kind of unclear. Help.

if cysts came after antibiotic use plus the little other information told--then hepar is more indicated --but this is only speculation ,on my part , at this time...
 
John Stanton last decade
WHOA! That's all the info you're gonna give me?! Do I use it the same way as the silicea? And why have you come to this conclusion? I want to know the reasons behind the reasons!

what about colliodal silver?

See the other thread on this matter as well.

You will have to get hold of a Materia Medica (MM)....and see the drug pictures of Hepar and Silicea.....after that come back with your questions.

i, personally, have no further clarifications for you --at this time.

Silicea 200 only for one day.
 
PANKAJ VARMA last decade
See the other thread !

I just bought silica - because although I love sour foods, what I have read tells me silica is better for boils that have not drained - in my case this is me - so I decided on doing silica - now - how long should I wait before I change if I don't see results from the silica - And - JOHN STANTON, why did the question of antibiotic use matter - I haven't come across and references for this in prescribing?

antibiotic use disruptes/destroys the production of 'right' digestive bacteria...many complications occur due to usage---
 
John Stanton last decade
I am going thru your posts.

love of sour foods is hepar symptom...
 
John Stanton last decade
Silicea and Hepar Sulph. can also be alternated....if you are confused which one to pick out of the two.

(Not a big issue !)
