Remedy for accident prone child?
Hello,I was wondering if there is any such thing as a remedy for someone who is accident prone? My 7-year old is constantly hurting herself--I am sure she does not need glasses or anything and am not sure why, but several times a day she runs into something or falls or scrapes something, gets a bugbite, splinter, etc. It seems to me much more often than other kids. I would be very interested to know if there is some remedy for this. She otherwise seems like a happy, healthy, well coordinated and active child.

There are possibilities in terms of remedies - many of our remedies can be awkward, clumsy, prone to injury. Such a characteristic may or may not help find the remedy though. The simillimum (constitutional remedy) still needs to be chosen on the basis of the peculiar aspects of a person's case.
One would be need to put it all in context - an Apis child is clumsy out of their restlessness, Tuberculinum runs too fast and is heedless of danger, Arnica reacts to small injuries in an out of proportion way, Agaricus seems to have exaggerated movements that cause them to knock into things or fall over, Sul-ac is always in a hurry and does not want to wait, Opium doesn't feel pain like other children and can hurt themselves without noticing it - and so on.
The energy of the patient always draws things to them to which they are sensitive. Reduce that sensitivity and they will stop attracting them. The energy is the vital force in homoeopathy.

Would you be able to help me choose a remedy? Previously when we had visited a homeopath, my daughter did take tuberculinum (although I don't think it had anything to do with hurting herself), though the three (from what you listed) that seem possible to me are Apis, Arnica, or Sul-ac, though I suppose she could be underestimating that she can get hurt. It just seems so out of proportion how often, even picking her up from school, she will have an ice pack. If you think there is anything I could do, I would like to reduce her continually drawing this to herself.
