📖 Boericke writes:
(HAMAMELIS VIRGINICA)
Venous congestion, haemorrhages, varicose veins, and haemorrhoids, withbruised soreness of affected parts, seem to be the special sphere of this remedy. Acts upon the coats of the veins causing relaxation with consequent engorgement. Passive venous haemorrhages from any part. Great value in open, painful wounds, with weakness from loss of blood. After operations, supersedes the use of morphia (Helmuth).
👤 Constitution
•Individuals who feel a need for respect and suffer from venous weakness, often presenting with a bruised, sore feeling in the veins or tissues.
