Witch Hazel is used externally as a compress for insect bites, burns, bleeding wounds, hemorrhoids, and varicose veins. Applied to nasal passages it will stop nosebleeds. Wash cuts with it to help cleanse them. Soak a cloth in witch hazel and wrap around sprains and arthritic joints to speed healing and ease discomfort and swelling.

In tincture form it is good as a mouthwash for conditions of the mouth and throat, and for bleeding gums.

Internally it will stop bleeding from internal organs, treats bronchitis, flu, and coughs as well as promotes healing of stomach ulcers.
