What an amazing fungus! These have many traditional uses. They make good fire starter if you don't have matches. They also contain good medicine and can make a lovely tea. As well, if it rains this will be nice umbrella for you!

I did not know that it is a good medicine. What can be cured?

Well this one in your photo is a Inonotus tamaricis which I am not sure 100% if this particular one has any medicine. The one I know for sure that has medicinal qualities is the Inonotus obliquus (which is the one that looks burnt like a peice of charcoal) because it contains huge amounts of melanin - it has been used in fold remedies by Northern Europeans for centuries. Some people think it may even be able to cure Cancer, but that is not proven yet. In any case the burnt looking one makes lovely tea and is supposed to have great health benefits. You can read more about it here if you like: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inonotus… .
