Comfrey is used an herbal medicine that has been linked to serious adverse health effects, including liver damage and cancer. It is administered externally to treat bruises, pulled muscles and canker sores, among other injuries. Because comfrey has carcinogenic effects on users, internal use is not recommended. Some people have died from eating or drinking comfrey remedies.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which has warned consumers that the use of comfrey may present a serious health hazard, recommended that comfrey be withdrawn from the market.
