      @semsimama2191 I use it for sprains and sore muscles. My grandmother loves it when I make it for her to use for her arthritis. My neighbor is 88 yrs old, and it's the only thing that helps her arthritis pain during winter.

      @backyardfarmerpat I made mouth wash for sore gums/toothache using the comfrey, and let's just say my cousin swish it for 2 mins and spit it out and went to bed and she up with her gums and mouth feeling way better. And by the time she repeat the process in the morning toothache and sore gum was gone.
      When swishing, u have to do the swish as if u doing oil pulling. I don't understand how Dr. Big pharmaceutical people live with themselves, knowing that stuff like this is so powerful and instead give ppl terrible drugs.

Plenty of people have been drinking comfrey tea long term and I mean decades without a scratch. And I get my liver checked regularly with lab work as I have had hepatitis c but now no trace due to strong treatment years ago, liver is restored to health- not damaged by comfrey tea.

    I also make comfrey and glad I had some when I got burnt on my hands twice from putting wood in the wood stove. I used the comfrey right away and my burn was healed within a week. No blisters or scaring. I also use it on my arthritis in my ankle and help to release the pain. Now I’ve got people trying it and they want more. That’s what I’m doing today. Making more comfrey salve. Amazing plants!

    Some doctors understand natural medicine and are ok with it or can help with suggestions. Both my regular doctor and my pain management Dr understood I try to use medicinal practices when possible. My regular doctor grew up with a grandmother who used Chinese medicinal herbs and is more knowledgeable than my other Dr but both are very encouraging to me. When you find a good Dr that supports natural along side chemical it's so comfortable with that Dr.

    I burned my inner finger really badly with a burning tool when it slipped. The pain and bubbling was immediate. I got it under water for a minute to stop the heat and was crying it hurt so bad. I was going for the nustard but remembered i had starts outside. I grabbed a leaf , smashed with my hands as much as i could and slapped ut in. I put a bandaid around nit and it stayed on for about 6 hours. When u took it off and washed it i had no bubbling left. The Next day my niece asked me how ny finger was and i had to remember what she was talking about because i literally had no pain ir soreness. All that was left was a little hard skin spot after a wound heals at least 2 weeks. I had the tiniest bit of pink and by the 3 rd day there was nothing bat all. It didn't peel or scar. That's when i started even more seed so i could make things to share with people I love
