Broken Bone? No Problem - COMFREY to the Rescue! Nature FTW 🌱
I busted my hand. It got swollen and super tender real quick. I couldn't move my fingers very well or make a fist.
No big deal, I know just what to do! I walked out into the yard and picked some comfrey. This beauty is one of my all-time favorite plants for her AMAZING healing properties!
Comfrey is also called Knitbone because it can heal broken bones and various traumas, obviously just what I needed in this situation. I picked 2 leaves and mashed them in a mortar and pestle.
I added a splash of filtered water to make a nice goop.
Then I schmeared it on my hand.
I covered it with a bandage so it would stay put and I wouldn't fling plant matter around.
Comfrey feels soothing right away, which is no surprise because it's a powerful anti-inflammatory. The pain immediately diminshed, and look at the difference in my hand after only 4 HOURS!!! Swelling reduced significantly, and I could move my fingers and close my hand again - no doctors, hospitals, or pharmaceuticals needed. 👊🏼
Comfrey is AWESOME!!! It pops right up out of the dirt for free, and if you ever need it you will be thrilled to have it.
Look at this other stuff it's good for:
COMFREY!!!

Thanks to @quinneaker & the @gardenofeden for teaching me about the plants and sharing the bounties of your land.
Nature is really amazing. It is our medicine chest--all natural in sustainable fashion!! Comfrey really does work that well. We have used it dozens and dozens of times in many situations for many things, even while traveling in Europe. The benefits are really underestimated. What a godsend is this plant. As are you @saramiller. Thank you for sharing!

Thanks for sharing this. Comfrey is another wonderful plant ally who gets a bad rep in this country. It’s almost as if cheap, natural, healing herbs are the enemy here. Good information like this is suppressed and we are taught to fear them.
I’m glad I read this today because I’ve been dealing with a pain for five days now. You’ve reminded me that I know some natural remedies for this. I’m going to pick up some arnica and/or cannabis to use topically.
Unfortunately cheap, natural, healing herbs are a threat to the system in power here and they are treated as enemies. It's up to people to reconnect to their roots and remember ancient wisdom!
YES blessings to your natural healing! Arnica and cannabis are a few more of my favorite herbs. Super powerful plants FTW!
Sad but true. Living our best, healthy lives is a threat to power and capitalism. I am inspired by you and the Edenites (is it okay to call y'all that?) because you are consciously living your best lives and working for the good of your community. It takes something to be able to do that.
Thanks for replying to my comment. I see that you get many and I appreciate you taking the time.
Es un excelente tips, que sirve muy bien como recurso de emergencia para desinflamar y quitar el dolor, al menos minimizarlo.
It is an excellent tips, which serves very well as an emergency resource to reduce inflammation and remove pain, at least minimize it.
