      The seeds are mild narcotic and as such *might* be good for pain and mild sedative. More often the indigenous groups in the united states and french trappers would use a decoction of the yellow flowers in an oil to relieve pain from ear aches or tooth aches. Better for pain would be wild lettuce, which we will go over in upcoming videos, or possibly willow bark.
