"Helichrysum is the appropriate oil for larger injuries until professional care is available.  Ideally undiluted, Helichrysum oil is administered onto the injury before it is bandaged for a trip to the doctor's office.  It will disinfect the wound and, unlike other disinfecting agents, will not be painful.  Helichrysum oil prevents swelling and inflammation.  The formation of new tissue to close the sound is greatly accelerated." -Schnaubelt, Medical Aromatherapy: Healing with Essential Oils

"Cystitis (Urinary Tract Infection) responds quickly to 1 to 3 drops of essential oil in a glass of water... can be drunk repeatedly during the day. In the beginning of an acute condition, this can be done every twenty minutes and symptoms will diminish quickly. Then the frequency of consumption of the tea tree drink can be reduced. Treating cystitis with tea tree oils is highly effective. Nonetheless, if the cystitis is recurrent, diet or lifestyle changes may be required for a full resolution." -Schnaubelt, 134

The hemorrhaging of capillaries around the vein causes congealed blood (that blue color you see) in the tissue that surrounds the vein - we call this a varicose vein.  To assist the body in dissolving and reabsorbing this congealed blood (go for helichrysum!!), we recommend the application process explained in the quote below.  

*If you think you may have an actual blood clot, you can apply helichrysum and/or cypress undiluted on the vein and get immediate medical attention.

Application ideas: Dilute oil(s) of choice and apply ABOVE the vein. 

-----

"When treating vericose veins there are rules to follow for massage or self-application: this must always start above the affected vein in order to help clear the blood from this area up towards the heart, before encouraging the upward flow of blood from below - direct pressure over the vein itself must be avoided." -Price, p.242
