Tussilago Petasites

A decoction of the viscous inner bark of Ul. ful. is much used as a poultice for

lessening pain in inflammations. In a case in which the mucous membrane of the rectum was dry

and extremely painful, Burnett relieved the sufferings with 20-drop doses of the tincture. The

bark in trituration gives much relief as a snuff in old vascular deafness with tubal obstruction

(Cooper).
