Phosphorus irritates, inflames and degenerates mucous membranes, irritates and inflames serous membranes, inflames spinal cord and nerves, causing paralysis, destroys bone, especially the lower jaw and tibia; disorganizes the blood, causing fatty degeneration of blood vessels and every tissue and organ of the body and thus gives rise to hæmorrhages, and hæmatogenous jaundice.

How does Homeopathy work?

Phosphorus is a mineral. All homoeopathy remedies are made from natural products be it animal vegetable or mineral they are shook in pure water for quite a while then one drop of that solution is put into another 100mls of pure water and the process starts again this is done over and over to get the different strengths. They are tested on humans who report what symptoms they cause. then when a person already has the symptoms the remedy cures it.

This is a very basic explanation and the process is far more involved and complex.

One of the things phosphorus does is to help control bleeding.

All homeomedicines are fundamentally like other medicine.While the modern medicine (allopathy) believes increased dose may result in faster cure,homepathy believes more dilute it is more effective.Second if an item causes a symptom,same item in small dose can cure the symptom.Homeopathy treats based on symptoms and NOT based on germ theory as auch.

Usually, that is too long for me. I think it depends on the guy as well as his face though. Certain guys may pull off long hair and others can't.
