Traditional Uses
In the past, ragwort did have some medicinal uses, especially in England.
In folk medicine, the herb was used externally (mixed with pig fat) as an ointment for relieving pain in the arms, hips, and legs.
The plant was also used to treat throat inflammation in humans and in horses. A poultice made from the plant was laid on the throat, or it was infused in water and used as a gargle.
One of the old English names for ragwort is “stammerwort”, referring to the common belief that it could be used to treat stuttering.
Until recently, ragwort extract was used internally as an herbal remedy for coughs and colds.
It was also used in the past to relieve pain related to sciatica, rheumatism, arthritis and gout, often in combination with wintergreen (Gaultheria procumbens) and lobelia (Lobelia inflata).
These traditional uses were also know in the U.S.
Ragwort was applied on boils to get them to open up and in some parts of England, a branch of ragweed was worn as protection against a variety of infectious diseases.
