Indications

Placenta suis is traditionally associated with disturbances of the peripheral circulation and their consequences — cutis marmorata (marbled skin), pernios (chilblains), dysbasia intermittens (intermittent claudication) and Bürger’s disease. It is linked with poorly healing and pressure-related skin damage, including decubitus (pressure sores), crural (leg) ulcers, rhagades (skin fissures), eczema, infolding of the skin and sclerodermia. It is further connected with dysmenorrhoea (painful menstruation), with sural (calf) spasms and with muscular rheumatism.

About the remedy

Placenta suis-Injeel is a single-remedy preparation from Heel’s antihomotoxic Injeel range, prepared from potentised porcine placenta (Placenta suis). As a suis-organ preparation it is used according to homeopathic principles to support the body’s own circulatory and tissue-repair functions, with a particular affinity for the peripheral circulation and the skin.
