Excellent for relieving joint discomfort. Many benefits of comfrey can be found by searching for it on Google. Other than searching for a different ointment that is safe for our bodies, there are no claims. Though it absorbs rapidly, it is tacky and thick, much like an excellent lip balm. May you heal well.

This comfrey ointment has been a miracle worker for soothing my dry, cracked knuckles in the winter. I apply a small amount before bed, and by morning, my skin feels noticeably softer and more healed. It has a distinct, herbal scent that I've come to associate with relief. I keep a tin in my medicine cabinet at all times for any minor skin irritations.

Traditional medicine
Verified purchase
I've always been fascinated by the traditional medicine, true miracles can happen when you combine the medicinal knowledge of the past with the modern technology. Comfrey root is a staple of various traditional remedies and it was used to help with the healing of the fractures. This product has an excellent ingredient list, and I've used it on my fractured wrist after the trip to the hospital. It significantly reduced inflammation and helped with the pain and swelling. But read carefully about potential side effects and exercise caution while using any products with comfrey, especially if you have problems with liver. Thankfully i haven't experienced any side effects and my fracture healed quickly and without complications. Be well!

Helped with my recent break
Verified purchase
I recently broke a bone in my foot. Apart from using the usual painkillers I used comfrey ointment daily to help speed the healing of the fracture. The benefit of the emollient allowed me to really get the active ingredient to absorb through the skin.. it wasn't greasy and I noticed an improvement pretty quickly.

Seems ok
Verified purchase
I tried this a few times but didn't really see any improvements. I mostly tried it for bug bites because I get SO itchy, also on some lingering bruises, and I didn't feel/see any difference. I tried it on some minor cuts as well with no increase in healing time. It's a good size for how little you need though, so if it's effective for you then I'd say it's a good value. Not much scent either which is nice.

This product is a natural or drug free way of healing bone or joint problems. Comfrey is nicknamed 'knit bone' because it works wonders at healing fractures and damaged tissues. A little goes a long way. Was very effective in helping a knee injury. Today total mobility and use it only when needed.
