Benefits and Uses of Comfrey Salve

 

The healing power of comfrey comes from allantoin and rosmarinic acid. Allantoin boosts the growth of new skin cells, and rosmarinic acid soothes pain and inflammation. Combined, these two substances are enormously helpful in speeding up healing for all of normal household bumps, bruises, and cuts. It’s one of the best tools to keep in your home medicine cabinet — especially if you’ve got kids!

 

When to Use Comfrey Salve

 

  • Burns: Comfrey can soothe the pain and discomfort of burns while encouraging new growth of skin cells to speed up the recovery process. Apply a thin layer of comfrey cream or comfrey salve evenly over the burned skin. For sunburn, cover the area with a lightweight garment. For burns, cover with a gauze pad. Apply again 3-6 times per day until healed. *Do not use this on severe or third-degree burns. Contact a medical professional.

  • Wounds, Cuts, Abrasions: One of the earmarks of childhood summer seems to be an almost innumerable amount of scrapes and cuts. Of course, it’s not only the kids that have a monopoly on injuries. Comfrey cream is one of the best go-to wound healing ointments around. Apply the ointment or cream several times per day to speed up healing. *DO NOT use comfrey externally on new puncture wounds or deep cuts as the outer skin layers will be stimulated to close up and heal prior to the draining and regeneration of deeper tissues. Seek medical help.

  • Stings and Bites: Comfrey is a perfect antidote to soothing swollen insect stings, and to ease the itching of mosquito or spider bites. The rosmarinic acid will ease the swelling and quickly reduce the pain of insect encounters. * If you are having an allergic response to a bite or sting, seek medical attention immediately.

  • Bruises: Been in an accident or have a painful bruise restricting your movement? Or perhaps you just want to get rid of some unsightly bruises before attending an event. Either way, comfrey ointment can help to speed up healing and relieve pain. Apply several times per day, as needed, until the bruising goes away. You’ll be amazed at how quickly the bruising fades with regular application.

  • Muscle Strains and Pain: Comfrey is essential in the natural medicine cabinet of all athletes. This herb soothes and eases sore muscles post-workout and strained muscles and ligaments post-injury. It encourages the regeneration of damaged tissues and relieves inflammation and discomfort. Apply comfrey cream or ointment three to four times per day.

  • Sprains and Swellings: The allantoin and rosmarinic acid in comfrey are the perfect pair to heal sprained wrists and ankles. They will help to ease pain and encourage quick healing by stimulating new cell growth. If you are able, soak the injured area in a warm, strong infusion, or tea, of comfrey. Do this four times per day. Apply cream or ointment between soakings.

  • Broken or Fractured Bones: Comfrey won’t magically repair broken bones, but it can help to speed up healing and relieve some of the discomfort along the way. (If the broken bone is in a cast, you won’t be able to apply balm to the affected area.) For minor breaks or those cannot be put into a cast, comfrey cream will be a helpful aid. Apply twice daily to the area. For breaks that require a cast, apply the comfrey balm to the exposed areas on either side of the cast. The body will absorb the healing and pain-relieving properties of the comfrey, drawing it to the break. *Never put any substance inside your cast, including balms and oils.

  • Rashes: Comfrey ointment can soothe rashes caused by allergies and viruses, and may even be used to help clear up stubborn diaper rashes.

  • Arthritis and Joint Pain: Comfrey can be a helpful massage salve to ease the pain of arthritis and joint inflammation. We suggest it is best paired with a CBD extract salve. CBD is a powerful anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving, while comfrey is packed with the nutrients that encourage healing and cell regeneration.

 

*In all uses, comfrey should NOT be considered a replacement for medical treatment in the event of a severe injury, allergic response, burn, etc. Always seek advice from your medical provider. Do not use during pregnancy or while nursing.
