QUESTIONS ABOUT ARNICA

Hey guys i'm going for my pre-op con on 3/30 and i was wondering will the dr. give me rx for it, and if not where could i get it from. Do i have to ask my pcp for the rx for pain meds after surgey or will the ps dr give it to me.

 Your plastic surgeon will give you the prescription for your pain meds. You can ask him about a prescription for Arnica. I'm not sure if he will prescribe it or not. You can order it online.

You don't need a Rx for Arncia. It's a homeopathic remedy.You can purchase it at the Vitamin Shoppe. It's cheap. About $8.00 for a bottle of 250 tablets. I didn't find it helpful in speeding up the healing process. Your PS should supply you with your pain meds.

I bought the Arnica gel at GNC no RX is needed for it. IDK if it really works anyway, eat a lot of protein and no smoking or being around people that do smoke.  that will speed up healing

I bought arnica tablets to be taken sublingually, at the health food store. Most health food or vitamin shops carry them. I took them post-plastics and they helped!

Matter of fact, I fell on Friday and broke my toe, and I'm taking arnica now for that bruising.
