What type of Comfrey is used in this ointment? I've been told to use only Common Comfrey.

I am taking this directly from the label itself Organic comfrey leaf in a base of beeswax and extra virgin live oil. My rule of thumb is to use organic products to reduce being exposed to chemicals ect. Hope that helps happy New Year!

depends on what you are dealing with. Arnica promotes healing of bruises, injury, inflammation - not really geared towards pain... Comfrey is also meant to work on relieving pain...

I use Zostrix (technically a generic product made by Rugby which is the same thing) because I find the lower potency to be more tolerable. Capzasin HP was too hot for me as it contains more capsaicin in it. Both are great products in delivering pain relief that the standard creams can't even begin to match.

I use mostly for dry skin as it helps with cell turnover. My guess would be app 2 wks? Use a non-comedogenic moisturizer after always. Doesn't have to be an expensive one.

I have had experience only using the leaves, but from my knowledge, the root is often added to salves/extracts/ointments to give it a stronger potency.

So no one ever answered this question......is this the product for good skin or the type 2 better for good skin as seen on dr oz ?

I'm not completely sure, but I believe the salve is used for wrinkles, while the ointment is generally used for scars and burns.

juanjok1, did you try these products? am looking for a mild organic shampoo to add some essential oils to fight the dandruff. I had sebhorric dermatitis on face and scalp. Face has cleared up (thanks to greatly reducing sugar intake but scalp is NOT cooperating, not matter what medicated shampoos I try). First I had few patches of huge flakes around the edge of my scalp which has now changed to all over scalp, smaller in size but many in number and very itchy. Can't wear dark solid tops anymore. Sorry, too much info!

we did our best to keep it just on the damaged skin, but that was impossible due to the extent and shape of the burn. I saw no damage to healthy skin that was exposed when changed as recommended. We did NOT rely strictly on Xeroform, we used ointments and essential oils in addition to Xeroform

it comes in an aloe version that i prefer for my face, it's lighter. i use this on rest of body with added essential oils for insect repel. i also use the bar/liquid soaps & therapy shampoo/conditioner too when i know i will be outside during warm months- absolutely love these products.

I just listened to clip from Dr oz. He never mentioned a certain brand. Just make sure it is plant based and take 350 mg per day. I have been using this brand and have seen a noticeable difference in my skin. Love it! !!

If you can crush or grind it smaller, then you can mix with water. Comfrey tea is also very healing and helps support healing.

I use the ointment as diaper cream mainly and it is excellent. Have also used it for dry skin patches, cuts, rashes... It is a must have for our family.

Ingredients are ichthammol 20%, anhydrous lanolin and amber petrolatum We called it the black salve My mother used it to draw boils nd other wound care. Says "for animal use only" but I use it all the time

No need for ointment. It works just like the machine used when you go for therapy. It give pulses and tingles for 30 minutes and turns off automatically. You decide the intensity for your own comfort. I highly recommend it!

I use the sandalwood and really like it. My best friend uses lavender and has sensitive skin, and says it is better for him.

I use to cover a Fentynl patch. I sometimes get itching and once in awhile I do get some small blisters. Hope this helps.
