Wounds (Culpeper says it harms)

CND-0163Wounds, bruises and sores

Open in the ConcordanceCopy permanent linkCopy citation

A heading of ours (added October 2026), not the 1850 index’s. It holds sentences the index would have filed under “Wounds”, read for direction: here Culpeper says the plant causes or harms, or the index heading did not fit.

Modern reading: wounds. Searched in PubMed as each plant’s Latin name with "wound healing" OR wounds OR "wound infection". The counts and papers are on the Concordance page.

Old claims, quoted verbatim: not medical advice. A warning sits above the claims and never hides them; no warning does not mean safe, only that no source here has flagged the plant.

This heading is ours. A keyword search had filed these under “Wounds”, but in each sentence Culpeper says the plant harms it. They are listed so his words stay on record, not as a remedy.

   and they say a wounded man that eats Mint, his wound will never be cured, and that is a long day.
