The beneficial action of Heckla
Lava is seen in incurable, progressive pathology like sarcoma. A female
aged 53, who had been diagnosed as osteosarcoma of left hand consulted me.
Physicians had advised her for amputation. CT scan revealed that the lesion
is a periosteal osteosarcoma. Plain
X-ray chest has shown that left calcified pretracheal lymphnodes, |
arousing suspicion of metastasis. We prescribed Heckla Lava was prescribed
according to Dr.Burnett’s writings on curability of Tumors.Pain
and swelling has come down and still the patient is on observation. |

| Heel
pain |

|
| I have used it successfully
in heel pain. Pricking and burning pain calls this remedy. Initial
movements are painful. In calcaneal spur, the x ray would reveal hook
like calcified protuberance on the pressure points of the calcaneum
. Some times the surrounding tissue also thickened. In such types
Bryonia would relieve pain and Heckla Lava has reduced the thickened,
indurated periosteum of the calcaneum |

Dental
complaints |

A lady aged 38 came to me
with severe pain and swelling in the mandible near the right
lower molar area with history of tooth extraction one month back,
she was unable to open her mouth ,after trying the regular medicines
like Arnica,Staphy etc.It was Heckla lava 30 c in frequent doses that
was able to cure her…Heckla lava though not a well proved medicinehas
been of immense use in my regular practice |
| for tooth caries, pain in the jaws especially
after tooth extraction, spongy gums with bleeding andhard swelling
of the cervical glands. I also use it in acute heel pain |

I have used in dental
complaints, particularly after tooth extraction. Clinically proved
well even in gum complaints like gingivitis, pyorrhea. I presume
Heckla lava is a best remedy for complaints appearing on jaws.

Tumors |
| |
This
drug is mainly helpful for the tumors that arise from bones, especially
jaw bones. The swellings be benign or malignant, this remedy helps
in treating them. The main indication of this remedy is cracking
sounds in the swelling as a friable bone while palpating it.Hecla
This symptom cured a longstanding tumor arising |
from left lower molar
tooth. Another important indication for the use of remedy is in
tumors with worms, especially in teeth.I had prescribed Lava; Worms
came out from the tumor and cured after. The remedy is useful for
the long bone tumors too.

I have used in different varieties of
carcinoma involving, stomach, and hard palate successfully. It acts well
in squamous cell carcinoma in most of my cured cases. Hardness and well-defined
edges call this remedy.
.It gives promising results in chronic non-heeling ulcers, even in Marjolin’s
Carcinoma, which arises from a scar tissue.
