Balkar ji: yes ... In olden times.. in western herbal uses ...oil was made with all parts of the plants or leaves and roots... used externally.. on affected joints... toes?
for Internal use....and a tea was made of leaves... usually a handful (is what they said in class) ( I find a tea bag contains about 1gm of dry herb, any herb, usually translates to 5 grams of fresh, if succulent about 10 grams) I personally think Agrimony reduces edema and so helps in gout related swelling... Modern herbalists prescribe it for many different things for which I dont have any confidence.. they use it for upset stomach??? why??? no one can tell... and as gargle... that I can understand... it reduces inflammation.... ONE CAVEAT... ANY HERB(S) that one uses... use it for five days, lay off for two days... continue upto five weeks if needed, and lay off for two weeks... this is a caution every one must follow... If people have gout... they must lay off many things in diets... local GP can help make a diet plan based on the patient's dietary habits which are soooo very different in different part of India... DID this answer your question???
