Sunburn


Sunburn occurs when the skin is over exposed to the sun especially for people with fair skin. Sunburn can result in skin ageing and sometimes even skin cancer known in the science community as malignant melanoma. There are some herbs that you can apply to the skin to draw out the heat and promote tissue repair and reduce pain. The medicinal herbs that can cure sunburn are plantain and St John's wort.

How To Use Medicinal Plants To Treat Sunburn.


  • The juice made  from plantain can be applied directly to the burns to reduce inflammation.
  • An infused oil from St John's wort can also be applied to the burnt area to cure or heal the sunburn and also to reduce inflammation.
  • Flaxseed oil can also be applied to sunburn to cure it or heal it.
