I don't know of any positive data to support this practice. If you haven't already done so, please discuss this recurrence with your doctor. Be well! JP Ruth,

Have just bought a jar of comfrey ointment to use on a spot of skin cancer on my throat from overexposure to the sun in my youth. It appeared about ten years ago and I've had it burnt by my doctor about four times over the years. After the first application last night it started to burn and went red and this morning it was still red but not so sore any more. Should this be expected? Is the comfrey drawing out the evil underneath? How long do you think it will take before I start seeing an improvement? Kind regards, Ruth Hi JP!

Fill a jar with chopped comfrey leaves and fill thejar will olive oil. Sit in the sun for a week or more. Strain....Here is your oil. Olive oil is also good for the joints. If you want ointment, find a bees wax candle , grate about i/4 of a cup and mix with i/2 a cup of your oil mixture, heat slowly over a double boiler. Baby food jars are perfect for storing the cream in. You can make it to your own consistancy as you go along.

Most sites that sell nutritional supplements will also carry comfrey ointment. If you have any trouble finding a reputable online site, feel free to e-mail me (via the contact page) and I'll provide you with a few options. Be well! JP Haakon,

Too early to know the results, but I can suggest a brand name. In Australia, the distributors are http://www.herbalsupplies.com.au, made by Hilde Hemmes Herbals. Hope it helps.

Please also consider supporting the healing process by utilizing optimal nutrition - both with diet and the judicious use of supplements. Many nutrients play an essential role in proper wound healing. Getting adequate or slightly above average amounts (during the healing process) should only help, in my opinion. Be well! JP Sharri,
