Comfrey

I would recommend that anyone who lives in an area where Comfrey (Boking 14) can grow, go ahead and plant it. In my northern NY garden, it has made an attractive plant with pretty purple blooms. Other than chopping it down each fall and spreading the leaves in my flower beds, it has required no tending. Deer don't especially like it. I planted it about 8 years ago and needed it recently when I broke a metacarpal bone in my palm. I chose not to have the surgery and plate that the hand specialist recommended; mostly because I had a full calendar. Instead, I used Mama to Many's recipe to make a Comfrey oil infusion. When the cast was removed and I was put back in a splint, I began to massage the Comfrey oil into my hand a few times per day. It was immediately so soothing and the change in the appearance of my hand happened almost over night. I now rub in the Comfrey oil before practicing making a fist, which is a painful exercise without first applying the Comfrey. Recently, on my 6 wk visit to the specialist, I was released as a patient and was encouraged to go ahead and use my hands, rather than a spade while gardening. My hand is improving rapidly. I felt too shy to tell the Dr it was the Comfrey that had sped the healing, but I wish I had. I hope Mama To Many sees this and knows what a help she has been to me.


Comfrey

Five months ago a friend was repairing his 2-ton trailer when the jockey wheel broke and the draw bar landed on his foot. After two trips to the hospital it was confirmed that he had indeed broken it. They placed his foot in a "boot" and told him to come back in a week as it was too swollen to place in a cast.

He called my husband and I and I told him about comfrey ointment. He was pretty stressed out and desperate as he and his wife had just sold their property and were packing up to leave in a few weeks. He decided to give it a try. He applied the cream three times a day for a week.

When he returned to the hospital he told the doctor he was healed. Of course she didn't believe him until she pressed, twisted and pushed on his foot without him uttering a sound.

She had another look at the x-ray and it definitely showed the broken bone.

Just over a week ago, a young friend had a fall off his motor bike and broke his collar bone. Of course I had to mentioned about the comfrey ointment and relayed the above testimony.

He was pretty excited and the next day, his fiance bought a jar from the chemist and he started to apply it to the area. I saw him two days ago and he said he was able to sleep and could move his arm up, down and around, without pain, whereas before the ends of the bones were touching and causing him great discomfort. He is yet to have his doctor's appointment, but judging by the progress so far, he won't be taking six weeks to heal.
