I use it for nearly every trauma and to increase the effects of antibiotics.[bromelain]
Also, simply eating ananas itself often has “magic effects” in trauma treatment, and many will enjoy this [a bit expensive and not always available]

Bromelain is a herbal extract of digestive enzymes derived from pineapple stems that has been used as a medicine since 1957.
STARTING DOSAGE:
• Pills: one to two 500 mg. pills (standardised to 2000 GDU’s (a measure of protein-digesting capacity) twice per day between meals
Research Highlights:
• Bromelain reduces oedema, bruising, wound-healing time and pain following surgery (Howat RC et al., 1972; Murray and Pizzorno, 1989).
• Bromelain has direct anti-cancer effects, originally attributed to its ability to digest the protein coatings surrounding tumours. However, recent evidence indicates that it may also enhance monocytes’ ability to attack target cancer cells (Eckert K et al., 1999). It thus may be used as part of an enzymatic treatment for cancer.
• Bromelain’s digestion-enhancing quality increases the serum levels and effectiveness of several antibiotics (Smyth RD et al., 1968; Zimmermann I et al., 1978), and is almost as effective by itself as an antibiotic treatment for sinusitis, bronchitis, pneumonia, and staph infections (Seltzer 1967; Weiss S et al., 1972).
