Comfrey & Hemp Herbal Salve

 

Comfrey cream is used to treat back pain, knee osteoarthritis, ankle sprains, bruises, and other injuries. Comfrey cream contains components that may speed up wound healing by stimulating new cell growth. Comfrey has been used medicinally for at least 2,000 years for various conditions, including the treatment of bone fractures, ulcers, and gout. This balm adapts to almost every skin concern. From soothing dry patches and taking the sting out of insect bites, discomfort, to improving the appearance of stretch marks and scars, promoting skin self-repairing. 

WHAT DOES IT DO?

Back pain: Topical comfrey cream applied three times a day for five days provides marked improvement for patients with lower back pain.

Osteoarthritis: In people with knee osteoarthritis, a degenerative wear-and-tear joint condition, comfrey ointment has been shown to significantly relieve pain, reduce stiffness, and improve function.

Blunt traumas: Topical preparation made from an extract of freshly harvested comfrey plant parts has been effective at treating sprains, contusions, and muscle strains.

Wound healing: Applications of comfrey extracts have been shown to accelerate the healing of superficial wounds and help with the regeneration of skin cells.

While there are claims that comfrey may also help with bone fractures, rheumatoid arthritis, and gout (a form of arthritis), there is currently not enough evidence to recommend comfrey cream for any of these uses. 

 

Take these precautions:

  • Never apply comfrey cream to broken skin or open wounds as it may be more highly absorbed by the body.
  • Don't use comfrey products if you have or are at risk of having liver disease, cancer, or are taking any medication that affects the liver since it may increase the risk of liver toxicity.
  • Do not use on children under 3 years old, as it's not been studied in that population.
  • Do not use comfrey in any form during pregnancy or nursing due to the risk of liver damage to infants.10
  •  

To avoid severe toxicity, comfrey should never be taken by mouth. Typically only used in small amounts for a very short period. Experts recommend not using comfrey cream for longer than 10 days in a row.
