tall stalk with light purple flower weed (or wildflower)

I've seen toadflax listed as a medicinal herb but what it's used for I'm not sure.
 
Had to Google:


Yellow toadflax is an herb. The whole plant is used to make medicine.

People take yellow toadflax for digestive and urinary tract disorders. It is also used to reduce swelling, relieve water retention by increasing urine production (as a diuretic), and cause sweating.

Some people apply yellow toadflax directly to the skin for hemorrhoids, wounds, skin rashes, and foot ulcers.
