They can help because nettles are fillet with acids and will sting that acid into you so if you rub a Dock leaf on it then it will get better because a dock leaf is filled with an alkali so acid and alkalis togeter become netural so it will get rid of the acids sting
Because doc short for doctor so it heals you
Nettles (Urtica dioica) sting to protect themselves, the question that you should be asking is How do nettles sting? Well, now you asked... The stinging structure of the nettle is very similar to the hypodermic needle although it predates that man-made invention by millions of years! Each sting is actually a hollow hair stiffened by silica with a swollen base that contains the venom. The tip of this hair is very brittle and when brushed against, no matter how lightly, it breaks off exposing a sharp point that penetrates the skin and delivers its stinging payload. It used to be thought that the main constituent of the sting was formic acid - the same chemical used by ants, giving that never forgotten burning sensation that demands to be scratched. Although formic acid is present in the sting, recent research has shown that the main chemicals are histamine, acetylcholine and 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin). A fourth ingredient has yet to be identified. Remember when stung a natural remedy will often be found close at hand. The leaves of the dock contain chemicals that neutralise the sting and also cool the skin.
seed leaves provide food for the seedling
Photosynthesis, the leaves contain chlorophyll
Slows down evaporation of water from the pores of the leaves.

Nettle has been used for many things over the years. I believe that the most well known use is its' alleged pain-killing properties. Nettle's root affects hormones and proteins that carry sex hormones (such as testosterone or estrogen) in the human body. A clinical trial has also indicated that it reduces the symptoms of allergies, including sneezing and coughing.
It doesn't.

A jellyfish sting from a box jellyfish can kill a person in minutes if not treated. From other jellyfish, it might only sting. you can atually help it if you urinate on it.
If you use your boat a decent amount, than it can be good to have dock plates installed. These will help to prevent damage to your boat and your dock.
