Natural Remedies for Plantar Warts (Verrucas)

I just realized another apparent effect of this ointment which is what seems like an exaggerated range of motion (ROM) in my shoulders and back.

I'm sure it's not actually exaggerated but I tend to check it as a "sign of aging", pretty regularly, and always wonder about it when I do, thinking I'll give it some thought and see if I can get some improvement but, of course, I promptly forget about it but, apparently, I accidentally already got the improvement so, SURPRISE! Not sure what that's about or where I put the ointment to bring it about since I basically have it all over but I haven't put much on my shoulders and none on my back...interesting...

I also have a rib that seems to be moving. Which is a bit uncomfortable. And weird.

I vaguely recall thinking I may have twisted or cracked that particular rib but that was months ago and I forgot all about it. It actually just felt like it was "out of place" but I have a high pain threshold so I'm not a very good judge of how "injured" I might be when I get myself banged up...unless I can't walk, like when I broke my foot, but it IS the same rib on the left side, right straight across from the liver and up a bit where I've been extending the application of the ointment on across to cover the pancreas area. At any rate, I don't think it's where it was an hour ago.

I wonder if it somehow facilitates/assists the fascia - as in it's ability to put things back where they belong, when it comes to broken bones...just one more interesting thing I guess. But it is a little sore so, you know what THAT means! More OINTMENT!

I may run out before I get my second jar!

Hi Cindy, I love Dr Christopher's formulas. Thanks for posting your experiences with the bone and tissue ointment “experiment.” I'm looking forward to what happens with the next large jar you go through :) keep us posted please!

Just finished off the first jar of this amazing stuff. The plantar warts are definitely gone, the range of motion in my shoulders keeps surprising me and my toes are almost normal.

Just realized that the dry spots on my elbows are gone.

I haven't been using it as much but I noticed, just today, that the range of motion in my hips and knees has also improved so I'm going to add those areas, specifically, with my new jar.

ALSO, I'm going to add the vertebrae right at my "old lady hump" and see what happens there. I know my neck is "loose", which I hadn't realized it was stiff, so we'll see what happens with that area.

I think I'm going to get the liver and gall bladder formula, too, as the brown/liver spots seem to be intermittently multiplying. Some days they're light colored and some days they're darker - sometimes there's a lot and sometimes just the regular amount so, there's definitely activity there.

Also, my "awesome scar" is nearly gone! And IT had a FOLD in it! The fold is gone and the depth of the "valley" has filled in tremendously!

I also noticed that this bone, flesh and cartilage formula is nearly identical to the "anti-plague" formula, herb-wise, which is some seriously interesting food for thought. At any rate, some pretty serious damages are being reversed! Plus, I haven't had the plagues, so I guess that's working, ROFL!!

One more thing - if a pet (or kid) gets a whiff of the ointment (although it doesn't seem to have much of an odor to me, even with my sensitive nose), if they need it, they may go out of their way to get at it. As in swiping the jar or licking it off of you. Which is fine as Christopher's formulas are all non-toxic, non-poisonous and non-habit forming. Fortunately, if a pet gets a hold of it, they won't eat any more than they need but that can mean a whole jar. Or two, if they can get at it.

Hi Can you tell me more about Dr. Christopher's ointment and where I can get it? It sounds amazing..

Thanks, Maryanne

Hi again Maryanne! Some serious rearranging going on in my left foot. Which is strange, because I would have called it my "good" foot. It IS the foot on which I jammed a toe back into the works but plain old castor oil pulled it back out and put everything back where it belonged in THAT case.

I've been thinking and wondering if the first stop on this train ride is the fascia. When it comes to bones. As in, feeding and freeing the fascia so that it can go where it's supposed to be and do its job of putting everything back where it belongs. I didn't even know until recently that it's the fascia that supports the weight of the body, not the skeleton. It dries out and adhesions develop and pretty soon, things get weird because it can't do what it was designed to do.

I wonder if the body restores the fascia FIRST, before it gets down and serious about rebuilding bones and things. Which is what I think is going on in my left foot...very interesting. I vaguely recall an injury to that foot but don't recall exactly what it was as my right foot got the worst of it at the time and, therefore, it got all of the attention due to a serious cut. Which, by the way, was perfectly closed with plain old hot water...I'd forgotten all about that..one minute you could see inside and the next it was closed...a chef's trick...

I'm down to one little, muffled pop in my "bad" shoulder. No more crackling. That was a joint injury and torn rotator cuff.

I also have a small sore/active spot (when I press on it) adjacent to the "old lady hump" area on the same side.

I've never HAD so much fun for a measly $15!! It's like a roll-call of old forgotten injuries!

A couple of spots are taking less of it in, leaving some sticky spots on the surface, but the others are still soaking it up so...

I got mine on amazon but several outfits have it. I've got everything I need, now, so I'm just going to make it myself.

I've spent today just marveling at how good my feet feel. That's what puts the good in the bad and the ugly! Makes it all worthwhile!

I failed to mention what's going on with the scar, formerly known as "awesome".I had worked on it before, with plain castor oil and all it did was soften it a little bit but this ointment is totally is having a very different effect.

When I started, it felt like a rope under the outer layer of the skin. THEN, just a few days later, it was like a wire. NOW it's like little beads, which makes sense because if it's dissolving the scar tissue, it would still need to span the gap so I think it's doing just that in little tiny sections, creating the "bead" effect and the spaces between the beads are getting wider as the beads get smaller. It's really fascinating! Can't wait to hear about what sort of geometry is created with the resolution of the kid's big motorcycle tailpipe burn scar. Should be equally fascinating!

New information - don't stop using the ointment just because you think it's done or because it's so much better you assume it must have done as much as it can or be as done as it can be or even because "profoundly better" is "good enough" -

I have whole new things going on in my shoulder. A totally different snapping, crackling and popping in a deeper area - something going on with a small tender spot on the bone itself, just beneath the skin in the front (which was almost certainly cracked, if not broken, at the time of injury) and something entirely new happening deep inside the actual joint. Plus, it's still at a not-quite-full range of motion.

I'm just saying. Sometimes "profound improvement" can be mistaken for "done", "finished" or "fully healed".

The extent of the injuries are unknown as it was never tended to, medically. All I was able to do was arrange it as close to normal as possible and immobilize it by binding my upper arm to my body whenever I could, for as long as I could. I was still actually using it. It hurt like blazes (and that from one with a particularly high pain threshold) and I was mad as hell for a month but there was no choice.

Blast! Never thought to check the range of motion in hips and knees. I just assumed they were shot and it didn't matter due to my mangled feet.

But I DID look for ways to stop a shooting pain in my ankle when walking down stairs. So much is happening that I didn't even notice that I don't have that anymore! Yeah!

Cindy, are you saying you applied the ointment to your eye? I'm a little confused. Did you take eyebright internally? Thanks.

Hi Hollyhock! I did NOT apply to my eyeball. I had been periodically applying it to my face when it zeroed in on my eyes. Both the boney structure of the eye socket and jaw and the internals of my eyes. Or, mostly, my left eye.

Other notes:

I have also successfully slowed the process, considerably., in order to spend a month taking care of some business as a full-on, full-speed, full-body application makes for some pretty actively intense and "noticeable" changes in body function. Things like tremendous weakness in the legs and the work and some pretty wild changes in the eyes.

I won't go into the slowing process except to say this: I've been practicing inter-species communication which includes (obviously) my own perspective which brings with it, a...shall we say, strange brew of life that is a combination of both philosophical and physical discoveries. Not to mention some unclassifiable aspects of existence that I never would have even imagined, otherwise.

This new and constantly changing perspective has, in the nearly fully-physical aspect of this particular "leg" of my journey has turned both aspects of my perspective completely upside down. Primarily because slowing down the process was both rocky and tricky and didn't seem to be working very well, initially. And this is where the extra-mind-blowing weirdness is.

All of that changed when I injected inter-species communication to the process. First, using direct communication in a plea for assistance with "The Fam", which stands for "the folks around me" as well as "The Fae" - I.e. "The folks around everyone", so, basically, the whole of those...shall we say...on the other side of "the bridge" that are focused on the human experience. Which is actually a quite small group, requiring a new and much more densely populated "set" I've just decided to call "The Fab", meaning "The Folks Across the Bridge" or, "The Fab" - that is focused on the physical and philosophical aspects of human existence. Which would be all points of consciousness with interests in all aspects of what I'm doing. From those with interests focused on both the physicality and philosophy to those with interests in aspects of being human I've never even imagined before - I.e. the whole of the "unknown" and ALL of their interests in the human experience. Including one particular idea of my own which is that the body, in and of itself, is its own entity and totally worthy of the same regards as anyone else. Hence, that would be the inter-species communication aspect of how I've slowed things down - communication with respect to the body as its own "person". That's what worked and arranged a half-repaired physical body into a body I could use in a more normal manner.

Currently, I'm wondering about how I, mySELF, want to proceed - with regard to the tiny part I, mySELF, am playing - in this fantastical adventure. So, that's where I am at the moment. Well, there's that AND all of the "human" business to which I must attend over the next few weeks. Which should be extra interesting with my newly upsidedownerized perspective on things!

Got all of my off-topic stuff squared away and resumed with the ointment. It's been about a week and my right hip went right back to the point I stopped - uncomfortable and wobbly, like jello.

The hip made sleep difficult so have been napping for a few months, rather than sleeping BUT, I think the repairs/restoration/replacement of my right hip is complete! Been sleeping for longer periods the past couple of days and there is zero wobbliness in there since yesterday morning - feels like a brand new hip!

Seems to be beginning work on left hip, at this point so...here we go again but it's all very interesting.

Passed a kidney stone yesterday, which was a weird surprise. Never had a kidney stone - or any kidney issues - before. I had to look up a diagram of the location of the kidneys as I didn't know what was going on. Had about an hour's worth of intermittent, sharp discomfort then, "plink" - very interesting. I wasn't aware the kidneys rode so high - I always thought they were lower in the body for some reason, LOL!

Work in the eye area has resumed, as well. Particularly the left eye. I have a vague memory of injury to that area from years ago but can't put my finger on it...

Played with some tinctures while I was off the ointment. Particularly comfrey because my appetite didn't return right away...failed to mention my appetite was somewhere down around didn't-have-one while I was using the ointment.

It would seem the activity has moved again - back to the left eye socket and jaw where some work seemed to be done earlier and deeper into the right hip.

I didn't notice activity in my left knee but it seems to have been..."loosened up". My left was my "good" knee so it will be interesting to see what it does with my right one - which has always been my "bad" knee. Although it feels pretty loose, at the moment, with very little "crackling" and "popping" when I bend it.

Face has also been a bit swollen on the left side for 3 or 4 days...thought it was my imagination but definitely swollen today as things are going on in there...interesting. Eyesight still improving.

Many short spurts of napping. In the past 48 hours, I've probably slept about 20 of them, ranging from 15-20 minutes to 6.5 hours. Seems to be related to hydrating and which side I'm sleeping on. Nodding off so, going to bed. 9pm

Okay, midnight, had a little mid-post nap of 3 hours. A little wobbly in the right leg and hip upon waking, eyes gooey, nose running, throat's a little sore, right arm and hand are a little bit asleep though I slept on my left side to not put pressure on my right hip. Sore throat and runny nose over about quarter past.

Half dropper cayenne, half dropper comfrey. Water.

12:40 Upper right arm and wrist coming on a bit sore - seemingly nerve related, intermittent chills, little headache from above right brow ridge.

1am Neck a little stiff on the right side and upper arm and wrist quite uncomfortable, slight earache in right ear...briefly and gone, headache gone but a little sore below right brow ridge - right eye uncomfortable and vision a bit wobbly. Stiff neck gone but upper arm still uncomfortable.

1:15 Band of chills around shoulders and chest and down the back to the waist (?). "Pop" from motionless right shoulder (?) and slight discomfort in left elbow (?).

Too many sensations to name, fading to just chills. 1:40 - profound sleepiness, chills fading as well. Going back to bed.

Something very interesting I have failed to mention is that when work is obviously happening in my hips, I'm quite wobbly, standing and walking. BUT, my response times - as in having to reposition my feet to keep from falling over becaue I'm wobbly - is incredibly fast. As if nothing in my legs is working properly except their response time. It always catches me off guard because it doesn't seem to be a muscle response. Possibly the fascia? Or perhaps muscle functioning so optimally that it doesn't seem to be stemming from there? I don't know.

The fascia has yet to receive enough attention for there to be enough data to support any of the conclusions that are being drawn about it...

It is reported that there are about 6 times as many nerve endings in fascia as there are in muscle, so maybe that's it.

I haven't the foggiest idea how it's possible as, throughout this whole process, my leg muscles have been going back and forth between weak and so strong that I don't even realize it until "after the fact", things like simply standing or sitting without using the arms of the chair for support or to steady myself aren't special but walking up and down stairs is. The only constant has been that "super" response time.

The fascia, being connective tissues made up of various proteins, is the only thing I can think of. Given the proper amino acids and protein, it seems to be quite adept at disassembling the proteins it's fed and assembling whatever type of collagen and other compounds are required for whatever it's creating, regenerating or repairing...

Apparently (or, rather, obviously, at this point) the work that was completed in my right hip wasn't the entire joint but, rather, just the socket as there was about 2 nap's worth of work done on the front of my right femur (between the knee and hip), then some work "around" the tibia (I assume dealing with some fascia adhesion) and now it's working on the femur HEAD. Which is a whole new - and wobblier - ballgame.

I'm back to napping and have been quite wobbly a couple of times, between naps, during work on the femur head. I suspect that's because, rather than going back to bed after I empty my bladder, drink water, feed it more herbs or otherwise deal with whatever wakes me up, I've been staying up when I should probably be going back to bed and finishing off my sleep, I'll be testing that when the serious work begins on the left side. As in, I'll be going back to bed/sleep after dealing with the immediate issue at hand, instead of staying up - to give it time to button things up for proper "waking hours" activity. Which is what it taught me to do when dealing with other things, like "the bug" and symptoms of an approaching cold or other feverish issue.

It's always been as simple as that. Regardless of which mode of natural treatment I've used. If I'm awakened and wobbly on my feet, I go back to bed and awaken all fresh and ready to go, instead of staying up in those wobbly states. When I do that, she finishes up whatever she's doing, buttons things up and THEN wakes me again when she's ready for me to start my day. BUT, she is quite capable of making whatever adjustments need to be made when I don't go back to bed or otherwise interfere with her process. It just takes longer if I don't go back to bed and let her do her things, without any interference from my monkey mind.

Strangely, it seems to be changing gears and is now having a diuretic effect.

I suspect part of the wobbliness is/was due to an inner ear/kidney..."thing". As if the "gravel root" aspect of the ointment has kicked into a higher gear...

2 differences in diet have been chicken and dark chocolate. Lots of leftover chicken over the past couple of days and a craving for cocoa - the constituents of which are similar to the constituents of bone. But that's just been the past couple of days.

The chicken was leftovers that needed to be used and the dark chocolate is just the form of chocolate I use that doesn't cause the ill effects of milk chocolate and for which just one small piece quenches the craving for cocoa.

Not sure what the inner ear thing is, although I do recall a reference of old, attributed to one individual, who postulated that he suspected all blockages were actually just various states of hardened mucous - including tumors, edema and all blockages referred to as "stones", which he suspected to be crystalized forms of mucous. No idea where I came across that...

I HAVE had a feeling of sinus stuffiness (without any signs of mucous) which seems to drip a bit as "water" from the nose a few times during this adventure. Not like sniffles but like plain water that doesn't "sniff" but, rather, simply runs out. Which is sort of weird...and very interesting.

It would also seem that I had a couple of spots of edema I wasn't aware of until now, as they have been very nearly eliminated over the past couple of days and are now, a little bit sore - down around the ankles. Plus, my feet, which tend to be dry, are sweating more normally.

There seems to be no end to the effects of this ointment.

Dix Hallpike Test and Epley Maneuver

I think the inner ear thing is clearing up as I seem to only be listing to starboard, at this point, and only intermittently.

Adding a little bit of Pau d'Arco to see if I can get that cleared up as the one-sided thing is getting annoying - ROFL!!

Also, since I passed an unexpected kidney stone and work is still happening with regard to my eyes, it occurred to me that the wobbliness could be due to BPPV - which is sort of like an age-related inner ear stone which may have been dislodged like the kidney stone due to that idea of all blockages being hardened - and/or possibly even crystallized - mucous which the ointment seems to be slowly dissolving/liquifying as it seems to be continueing to unblock things all over the cotton-picking place...

But, I'm going to wait until I go to bed to test for it and try the maneuver.

Some extremely interesting and brand new things are happening for and to which I can neither find nor recall coming across ANY references - obscure or not - but which seem to be breaking the dams of a variety of whole streams of new ideas regarding some pretty significant aspects of physiology itself.

That said, I'm going to have to organize some thoughts just to be able to describe things - as semi-accurately as possible - as I continue this exploration.

If anything super/EXTRA wild happens, I'll let you know...
