How to Make Comfrey Salve For Bumps, Bruises, Broken Bones

How to make comfrey poultice

Crush or mash about two tablespoons of fresh or dried comfrey leaves in very hot water. Place the mashed ball of hot leaves inside a piece of cheesecloth or a sturdy paper towel and tie the ends together with a rubber band to make a little packet. Place it against the wound.
Use about a quarter sized amount each time. You can apply this 3-4 times a day to help promote healing. Obviously, you can’t remove anything covered by a cast, but you can gently rub under the cast as best as possible.
You DO NOT want to use comfrey salve on open skin, it may cause irritation. This comfrey salve is only for surface wounds that are closed like bruises, sprains, and broken bones.
