Horsetail is a plant. The above ground parts are used to make medicine.
Horsetail is used for “fluid retention” (edema), kidney and bladder stones, urinary tract infections,
the inability to control urination (incontinence), and general disturbances of the kidney and bladder.
It is also used for balding; tuberculosis; jaundice; hepatitis; brittle fingernails; joint diseases; gout;
osteoarthritis; weak bones (osteoporosis); frostbite; weight loss; heavy menstrual periods; and
uncontrolled bleeding (hemorrhage) of the nose, lung, or stomach.
Horsetail is applied directly to the skin to treat wounds and burns.
There have been reports of horsetail products being contaminated with a related plant called Equisetum
palustre. This plant contains chemicals that can poison cattle, but toxicity in people has not been proven

Uses
Today, the silicon content in horsetail offers bone- strengthening effects, making the plant a potential treatment for osteoporosis and brittle nails, says the University of Maryland Medical Center. You can also take horsetail extract as a diuretic to treat
edema, or water retention, and urinary tract infections, notes the University of Michigan Health System. Horsetail may also help you if you have rheumatoid arthritis or osteoarthritis. When you apply horsetail extract products topically, it can help to heal wounds as well, the University of Michigan adds
