Our dried Comfrey can be infused into an oil of your choice to prepare a salve or simply use as an infused oil or closed skin poultice/compress application. Once known as knitbone, Comfrey / Symphytum officinale has a long history of wound healing, particularly broken bones, torn muscles, sprains and aches. Not just for bones, the allantoin in Comfrey Leaf helps promote cell growth as well inhibiting infection and reducing inflammation on all tissues, particularly skin issues.
"Comfrey (Symphytum officinale L.) Leaf has been used over many centuries as a medicinal plant. In particular, the use of the root has a longstanding tradition. Today, several randomised controlled trials have demonstrated the efficacy and safety. Comfrey root extract has been used for the topical treatment of painful muscle and joint complaints. It is clinically proven to relieve pain, inflammation and swelling of muscles and joints in the case of degenerative arthritis, acute myalgia in the back, sprains, contusions and strains after sports injuries and accidents, also in children aged 3 years and older."

"Comfrey is a well-known traditional plant medicine with a long therapeutic history. Its preparations have been widely used for the treatment of severe muscle and joint problems, wounds and bone fractures, and inflammation (Seigner et al., 2019)."
"Comfrey is also used as an external preparation to heal, ulcers, sprains, and fractured bones (Smith and Jacobson, 2011)."
"The Comfrey plant has long been used as a topical analgesic and anti-inflammatory. Comfrey plants can be used to alleviate muscular discomfort, mend fractures and wounds, and function as an anti-inflammatory (Seigner et al., 2019). Previous research has indicated that comfrey plants have analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties due to the presence of phenolic substances such as rosmarinate acid. Rosmarinic acid inhibits the production and release of pro-inflammatory mediators (Oliviu et al., 2017)."
