Homeopathic Treatment for Sarcoids?

[Olliecp77]

I only have a recent experience of a small sarcoid on side of youngster, I stupidly kept picking it as thought it was a messy scab from poor fitting saddle when he came back from breaking. Then it got all bloody and bubbly lumpy, boke. I was considering liverpool cream as this worked for another friend however it wasn't that bad but starting to grow. I give my other horse aloe vera juice for his stomach (vet prescribed after collitis) - I started to give a healthy dash of this is youngsters feed (nothing to do with potential sarcoid) a month or so later I noticed he just had a bald spot on his side (wasn't having rugs off much due to snow and not working) - I presumed he may have bitten it as he had been poking at it suddenly but maybe the aloe vera helped - cheaper than liverpool cream and may help with whatever treatment you decide. He still has the bald patch but all the bubbly skin has smothed out - fingers crossed it stays that way!! Holland and Barrett for deals on aloe. Good luck - horrible things, boke :s

Whilst I agree that sarcoids should be carefully monitored under the supervision of a vet, I do think that alternative medicine including homeopathy has its place.

My horse had a cluster of four small sarcoids which were examined by my vet. After 6 months of giving Global Herbs Sarc-Ex they had reduced to tiny pimples under the skin.

That was about 4 years ago.

That's not homeopathy though is it? I've got no gripe with herbs - I have no experience of them with sarcoids so can't comment on any effectiveness there - but have had success with other complaints and herbal remedies (horse and me )
