Kerry,

There are some medical schools in the US where want-to-be MDs are taught
about alternative medicine.

You are treading on thin ice here. Doctors can't "prescribe" an herbal
remedy for any medical condition. Herbs do not repair broken bones.

Jim,

A friend who is an MD prescribes comfrey as a poultice for
broken/sprained
bones. His wife recovered in less than the estimated time with a broken
bone by having a poultice of comfrey rather than a cast.

P.S. I have bought it at Whole Foods, but I don't know about growing it.
I
would like to know.

Has anyone had experience growing Comfrey. Understand that it makes a
good
green mature and compost tea. Are there any local sources:
