It can be used to prepare an infusion, compress or poultice. To make a compress, simmer the herb in water for 10–15 minutes, then apply the infusion to the skin using a clean cloth. For a drink, the recommended amount is 5 g per cup, up to 3 cups a day. Consult a doctor before using herbs, as excessive consumption may have unwanted effects.
