Dr. Christopher used marshmallow to treat gangrene. He had numerous success stories, including several where the medical profession wanted to amputate the gangrenous limbs. The patients would hurry to Dr. Christopher, who would tell them to make a strong decoction of marshmallow root, and use it either in fomentations, or to soak the afflicted limb. He would also tell his patients to drink cups of marshmallow tea.

Marshmallow is also a diuretic and is good for the kidneys. One of Dr. Christopher's students gave her a son a marshmallow root to chew on when he was doubled over in pain from severe kidney pain from being unable to void his urine. Within seconds of chewing the root he was able to void his urine, and received relief from the excruciating pain.
