Corn silk can be very soothing to the urinary tract. Before I
realized what i.c. was, I used corn silk for years when I had
urinary tract pain and spasms, often with great success. Then,
after years of use, it stopped being as effective for me. I
definitely think you should try it. It is gentle and soothing.
For people with corn sensitivity, I suggest using marshmallow root
instead. After corresponding with several leading herbalists, we’ve
come to the agreement that its a “don’t know” whether corn sensitive
individuals are also sensitive to the silk. It seems to be our
common consensus to lean toward caution with corn-sensitive
individuals
