Symptoms of such patients would be found somewhere in these remedies. Sometimes, the tendency of the arteries to rupture may be the consequence of suppressed skin diseases. For example, in Rhus Tox, the affected area tends to exude a watery discharge, even though the skin disease had apparently healed over twenty years beforehand. The recurrence of the varicose veins will need to be treated with Rhus Tox 1000 once or twice a week. Besides this, standard treatment with Aesculus, Fluoric Acid, Calcarea Fluor and Pulsatilla should be used.
