Accelerated resolution of laser-induced bruising with topical 20% arnica: a rater-blinded randomized controlled trialIt has an anti-inflammatory effect inside the body and supports tissue repair, according to a 2016 study in PLoS One. The researchers say one way arnica may work by interacting with the genes responsible for repairing cells. 5 However, never use raw arnica – when consumed raw and undiluted, it’s toxic to the body, and applying it directly to the skin can cause irritation. 7 Do not use if you are allergic to Arnica montana, or to other plants in the Asteraceae (Compositae) family or to any of the other ingredients. The European Medicines Agency says that arnica is approved to help relieve bruises, sprains and localised pain. 4 Arnica is safe to use when applied to the skin in a thin layer as a cream or gel. Make sure you only apply to areas of unbroken skin. It’s also fine to take homeopathic arnica tablets or spray; in homeopathic medicine, the herb is heavily diluted.
