Stinging nettle has natural antihistamines that can help relieve symptoms of allergies and reduce inflammation. It is also excellent in preventing and treating the following conditions:

*Internal bleeding
*Osteoarthritis
*Nervous and cardiovascular disorders
*Anemia
*Respiratory problems
*Kidney and bladder diseases
*Labor pains
*Benign prostatic hyperplasia
*Menopausal vaginal atrophy

To make an antiseptic nettle spray, use either fresh or dried stinging nettle leaves. This recipe is also safe for consumption if you intend to take it internally.

Ingredients
¼ cup dried stinging nettle leaves (1/2 cup, if fresh)
2 cups boiling water
Steps

1. Put the dried nettles in a mason jar.

2. Pour boiling water into the jar.

3. Let sit for at least 4 hours or overnight.

4. Strain the infusion.

5. Transfer into a spray bottle.

To use: Spritz the nettle spray into the skin and around the painful area. To use it for the hair, wash and dry your scalp and thoroughly apply the nettle spray. Gently rub and massage into the scalp to stimulate blood circulation in the roots.
Alternatively, you can use the recipe as a tea by adding honey or your desired sweetener and drinking it twice a day.

You may also use it as a foot soak to relieve aching joints and muscles.

Please note that people react to stinging nettles differently. Before using it topically, conduct a patch test on a small portion of the skin. Do not use nettle spray if an allergic reaction occurs.
