Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 1

Agrimonia pilosa, commonly known as hairy agrimony, has a long history of use in traditional East Asian medicine, particularly in China, Korea, and Japan. It has been traditionally employed to address various ailments, including pain, inflammation, and bleeding disorders. In the context of headaches—including those associated with sinus issues—Agrimonia pilosa is sometimes included in herbal formulas for its purported analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. However, the specific use of Agrimonia pilosa for sinus headaches is primarily rooted in traditional practice rather than modern scientific validation. There is limited or no direct clinical research specifically examining its efficacy for sinus headaches. The available scientific literature focuses on its general anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, but does not link these properties directly to sinus headache relief. Therefore, while its use for this purpose is documented in traditional medicine, the quality and specificity of evidence supporting such use is low, meriting a rating of 1 out of 5.
