        I have a friend who dropped a steel plate on her fingers about a month ago. It shattered her index, fractured her middle, and nicked her ring finger. So she currently has four pins in her index finger from the second joint to the tip (two lengthwise and two across). She is using a salve that I make that contains comfrey, calendula, arnica, oils, and beeswax so that’s been helping her fingers heal, but the tendons/ligaments in her index finger are still pretty mad. Would the bone, tissue, cartilage from your store help with that or should I use something else? Thanks.

          If it’s pain, I’d use some hops tincture topically as needed.

           

          Don't use herbs or combine herbs with medications or use them during lactation or pregnancy without talking with your healthcare provider.

            I’ll send some hops tincture her way. Mostly I was wondering if the bone/tissue/cartilage tincture would help calm things down or if it’s just a matter of being able to move/bend the finger again?
