Pipicha (Porophyllum linaria) is a annual herbaceous plant with finely‑frayed, spoon‑shaped leaves that are often harvested for culinary and medicinal use. It is traditionally used to relieve toothache, cough, sore throat, parasitic infections, and to promote wound healing, and it is also applied to ease rheumatism and inflammation. While it is generally well tolerated, mild skin irritation or allergic reactions can occur; avoid use during pregnancy or when taking blood‑thinning medications without professional advice.
