All About: Ching Wan Hung Burn Ointment

Ching Wan Hung is an herbal first aid ointment.  Many Chinese herbalists carry it, and it can be found in most Asian markets.  This ointment smells like Chinese cooking (from the sesame oil), but works wonders on relieving pain from burns and healing the skin. 

Ching Wan Hung is beneficial for many types of skin damage.  It is used in Chinese hospitals to soothe burns due to heat, chemicals, or radiation.  It has been successfully used to help with eczema, psoriasis, and bedsores.  It is also commonly used to heal mucosal tissue, such as around the nose or anus.

Another use for Ching Wan Hung is to prevent scarring.  Keeping a wound or burn moist with Ching Wan Hung will reduce scabbing, resulting in less scar tissue formation.

Traditional herbal formulas for first aid help the body when it is most in need.  Ching Wan Hung heals tissues quickly to minimize damage to the skin from burns and slow healing sores.  It is available at Herbs and Acupuncture Clinic.
