Swollen Lymph Node Remedies
Her cat seemed ok, and I gave her 'Echinacea Goldenseal' to fight infection. About 3 weeks later one of her glands in her neck was about the size of a tennis ball, I gave her the remedy again for 2 weeks, 2 weeks off, 2 weeks on again. The lump halved in size, but still goes up and down, I am giving her colloidal silver and massaging the lump, but it still hasn't gone away. What can I give her to make the gland drain out? There is nothing at the skin level that is ulcerated or seeping, just the lump inside. Thanks.

Hey Auntychel!
Are you sure you are dealing with a swollen gland and not an abscess?
You might consider 'silicea' - 30C for chronic problems or 200C for stubborn problems.

The thing that I have found that has helped the most is yogurt, Natural plain organic probiotic and should contain Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus acidophilus ( Yeo Valley ) is one,
For a medium sized dog collie etc, one tablespoon in food morning and night, will take a week or so to see real improvement and may suffer from loose stools to start with.
Medicated shampoo did help the first time used but as it strips the oils out of the skin dandruff etc returned for a few days then slowly cleared up, do not overwash the dog unless advised by the vet also for his chin used 1 pint boiled water with 1tsp salt (cooled)to wipe his chin with cotton balls after eating so no bacteria can build up,
For the yeast and allergies to build up there must be an underlying cause so am going to switch his food and try something with a higher protien content, this will take some time as can take a while to show results but at least it seems to be under control and a big improvement on what he was like before, will also be starting omega 3 tablets once the food is sorted out as this also helps skin conditions and a lot of dog foods do not contain enough.
