Ferrum Phos: A Remedy for Inflammation

Ferrum Phosphoricum ( Ferr-p .) is a remedy that is one of those you should have on hand. It has a wide array of uses in a variety of situations. I love how it can be used for so many different things and how effective it can be. If you or a loved one is beginning to get sick with some type of inflammation (think redness, pain, swelling) and you don't know which remedy fits your specific problem, ferr-p. is a great place to start. It is for that 'first' stage of inflammation, not later stages when things are full-blown inflamed, irritated and painful. Ferr-p. can halt a fever or an ear infection or teething pain in its track if you catch it early.
It is also a wonderful remedy to help support the body after blood loss or in anemia.
