Hives (Rash / Itchiness)
Chickweed - Historically used to treat both internal
and external inflammations. Poultice of stems and leaves used to ease
arthritis and pains of the joints, cuts, and skin irritations. It may soothe
severe itchiness and is often used to relieve eczema, varicose veins and nettle
rash. An infusion of the fresh or dried plant may be added to a bath, where the
herb’s emollient properties will help reduce inflammation, in rheumatic joints
for example, and encourage tissue repair.
Nettle – Both a tea and a poultice of cooked nettles are used to treat eczema and other skin conditions. Buy/view Nettle
