COMFREY (Knitbone) (Symphytum officinale) (Boraginaceae)

Comfrey's ability to promote the healing of bruises, sprains, fractures and broken bones has been known for thousands of years.  It encourages ligaments and bones to knit together firmly.  A compress of comfrey applied to a sprained ankle can reduce severity of injury considerably.
