THE POTENTIAL OF DMSO IN TREATING HEAD AND NECK CONDITIONS
DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide) is a chemical compound that has shown remarkable effectiveness in
treating various conditions affecting the eyes, ears, nose, throat, and teeth.
Despite its proven benefits, DMSO remains
largely ignored by mainstream medicine. Let's delve into the evidence supporting DMSO's therapeutic uses and
explore why such a promising treatment has been forgotten.
EYE CONDITIONS
Research indicates DMSO can help with multiple eye problems. Studies show it improves vision
in cases of macular degeneration and retinitis pigmentosa, and has even restored sight
in some blind patients. It also reduces eye irritation and inflammation, helping with conditions like
cataracts and sore eyes.
Interestingly, when applied to the eyes, DMSO appears to concentrate in the
cornea before being cleared from the body **
Animal studies confirm DMSO's safety for ocular use, with only temporary irritation reported at very
high concentrations *
EAR CONDITIONS
DMSO has demonstrated benefits for ear problems including tinnitus, hearing loss,
and infections like otitis media.
Clinical studies from the 1960s found DMSO mixed with anesthetics could treat ear
infections without painful procedures.****
More recent research shows DMSO enhances the effectiveness of antibiotics when treating ear
inflammation. ***
SINUS AND THROAT CONDITIONS
For sinusitis and nasal infections, DMSO has shown impressive results.
A 1965 Merck study of 4,000 patients reported
DMSO effectively cleared sinus infections.
Russian studies in the 1990s found DMSO helped 94% of children
with chronic sinusitis recover completely. *****
In the mouth, DMSO reduces gum inflammation and bleeding, promotes
healing after dental procedures, and can relieve tooth pain.
WHY HAS DMSO BEEN FORGOTTEN?
Despite its wide-ranging benefits, DMSO faced significant opposition from regulatory agencies
in the 1970s. Historical records show the FDA actively worked to suppress DMSO research, despite Congressional support
for further study. ****** This opposition coincided with the rise of patentable pharmaceuticals,
suggesting possible economic motives behind DMSO's marginalization.
CONCLUSION
The evidence clearly shows DMSO's effectiveness for numerous head and neck conditions. Its safety profile is
well-documented, with minimal side effects at therapeutic doses. The medical community's neglect of DMSO
represents a troubling case of promising science being overlooked due to institutional and possibly financial interests.
