## Frequently Asked Questions

### Q: Is Arnica safe for open wounds?

A: We advise against using arnica on open wounds ([All-Purpose Salve](https://earthley.com/products/all-purpose-salve-stick/) is a better option here), but a small amount is likely not going to hurt. If you accidentally use it on a bump that has a small cut, don’t worry! Avoid on larger wounds.

### Q: How does this compare to homeopathic arnica?  Is this homeopathic?

A: This is herbal arnica. We take whole flowers and infuse them in olive oil. Homeopathic arnica comes on little pellets and is very dilute. There are times you may want to use both, depending on what is going on.

### Q: Is this different or better than arnica creams, gels, or ointments from the store?

A: We think so! Check the ingredients on other options — most have benzyl alcohol, potassium sorbate, or other things you don’t want on your skin. Ours is pure organic olive oil, organic arnica flowers, and candelilla wax — that’s it!

### My product arrived melted. What should I do?

This can happen when the product is exposed to hot weather. The quality of this product is not affected. Because we don’t use artificial fillers or stabilizers, our products can soften or melt in warm weather. But it’s an easy fix!

Natural products may melt, but they still work just as wonderfully.

First, if you believe the product may be melted -- do not open it right away. Place it in the freezer for about 30 - 45 minutes, then, after solidifying, use a fork to stir it well.
