In my practice, horse chestnut has proven to be one of the best folk remedies for thrombosis. It effectively removes excess fibrin from the body, thins the blood, strengthens, and cleanses blood vessels from atherosclerotic plaques.
For thrombosis treatment, you can take a tincture made from horse chestnut flowers internally. During the chestnut’s flowering period, collect the inflorescences along with their stems, fill a 3-liter jar without compressing them, and pour vodka over the flowers. Let the mixture steep in a dark place for a month, then strain it. The tincture is ready for use. Take 30-40 drops diluted in 50 ml of water. You can also use the tincture to rub problem areas externally.
A good remedy is tea made from horse chestnut fruits.
Harvest the fruits in October when they are fully ripe. Another option is a tincture made from the peel of horse chestnuts.
Remove the brown shell from the fruit and pour vodka over it in a 30 g to 1-liter ratio. Let it steep for a month in a dark place, then strain. Take it internally the same way as the previous tincture or use it for rubbing. The course lasts for one month, three times a day, half an hour before meals. Afterward, take a two-week break and repeat the course for another month.
Such treatment can be continued throughout the year until full recovery. Believe me, this remedy is highly effective.
The kernels left after peeling can be used to make ointments for rubbing. First, dry the kernels in the oven. Then grind them in a coffee grinder and mix them with unsalted lard, butter, or goose fat in a 1:2 ratio. Store the ointment in the refrigerator.
Horse chestnut enhances the tone of venous vessels, accelerates blood flow in veins, and thus prevents the formation and progression of thrombosis. Preparations based on horse chestnut have anti-inflammatory and anti-edema effects and slow blood clotting. Therefore, they should only be used under medical supervision with regular monitoring of prothrombin levels in the blood (a complex protein indicating the state of the blood clotting system). If symptoms such as nausea, heartburn, or chest pain occur, seek medical attention immediately.
