I had a lump behind my ear since childhood related to a maxillofacial injury possibly. I tried a series of natural and herbal remedies, one being chanca Piedra. The lump was gone in a week of using the remedies. And I passed a golf ball size stone, and white powder. None of the remedies were white powder. If the remedies dissolve the calcium deposits entirely I will not need maxillofacial surgery that could cost near $100,000 if joint replacement.

A well known doctor from Naples, Florida, a specialist in health and nutrition, has said the rock calcium is not organic calcium and never should be in vitamin supplements or food. He said calcium carbonate causes pea gravel calcium deposits in the brain. Calcium carbonate is rock calcium. It could be what the deposits are from. I had one calcification in the brain area on a CT. He said calcium citrate is the right organic calcium. I switched to it.

I am not sure if calcium carbonate in toothpaste is an issue. But most don't eat it. I am guarding against that bad calcium and seeing some results with the chanca Piedra. I use herbs cautiously. I am going into another round of chanca Piedra and see what results I get before going into a possible $100,000 surgery. I believe God gave us herbs in Genesis. I figure it is the right way to go.

You are correct re calcium carbonate. It's -essentially- chalk. So, not gonna eat it!!!

I use an herbal calcium from Dr Christopher. (called herbal calcium) Didn't want to take an inorganic calcium and that's basically what today's (calcium) supps are. It seems to be working but, often, it's hard to quantify.

I'm still looking for an herbal tincture that will work on dissolving a calcium deposit - part of a bunion - on my foot. They're out there, just haven't found it yet.

Do a web search for "Chinese medicine osteophyte powder". There are soaks and oral supplements available that address calcium deposits-bone spurs.

Try Castor oil put in over the area at night. Sleep with it on your foot. Cover with a soft cloth and a plastic bag over that put on a sock to keep it in place.

What helped me was a castor oil pack placed on the foot. Did this for 3 nights. Pain gone. Castor oil is great for Inflammation esp. helps bones. I've used it for fractured foot, bone spurs, back pain. Always works for me. I buy Heritage Store. (Edgar Cayce Product). Comes in a glass bottle. Cold Press and Hexane free. Use a diaper or T-Shirt. Calcium supplements can cause lumps in breast. Stay away from it.
