Wound healing is all about how healthy you are. If your immune system is not at its peak in performance, it's likely that you will have a problem in healing any ailment, including any wounds.

It may be that you have all the signs and symptoms of a wound not healing. Symptoms such as:

pain
infection
offensive odour
no sign of healing
swelling

Or you may just have one or two signs. If your wound is not healing, then eventually the problem may become systemic and you may start to get a fever, malaise and a general feeling of not being right.

The best way to stimulate your body into action is to stimulate your immune system with an appropriate medicine which will start the healing process.

Homeopathy works by stimulating your immune system so that you can cure you. But you need to know which medicine is best for your condition. So make a short list of all the major and minor symptoms of the wound.

When you can do that, the medicine is likely to be beneficial for you.
