Breaking up scar tissue...
Hi all:

Was wondering if anyone could help. I'm looking for something that can be applied internally to break up scar tissue from surgery. (Rectal cancer-- long story!!) I hear vitamin E oil is good. Any other suggestions?? Thanks in advance.

Regards,
CancerDad

Arnica is suposed to be good. Also Vitamin K. Neosporin has some scar gel too.
