I have used it succesfully with renal calculi.My understanding of its action is the relaxant effect it has on the ureters etc. as it is flushed through the U/S...would this work in the mouth?? Maybe as a mouthwash?? As for the salivary calculus, I have a friend who had this twice years ago (which is not supposed to happen for some reason) Surgical removal so horrible the first time she did it herself with a needle the second time, which sounded excruciating to me. As well as the dietary changes re ph of body etc., why not try a local drawing agent Slippery Elm + Thuja or whatever..might be tricky to keep in place but worth a try. All the best, Noreen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2002 Report Share Posted April 30, 2002 There is a section in Weiss (the original edition!) on Rubia tinctorum. One of the most promising herbs for urinary tract stones is Crataeva nurvala---there is a profile of this in Kerry Bone's Clinical Applications of Ayurvedic and Chinese Herbs, as well as an article by D. Suresh Kumar in the British Journal of Phytotherapy Vol 4 No 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
