# Wound care with honey and cinnamon Sorry, I need to explain a little important information: although honey and cinnamon have certain antibacterial properties, homemade wound healing ointments are not recommended for open wounds, especially deeper or severe wounds. ## Why be cautious： 1. Homemade products under non-sterile conditions may introduce bacteria 2. Cinnamon may irritate the skin of some people 3. Severe wounds require professional medical treatment ## Correct method of wound treatment： *Minor wounds: clean with soap and water, use medical disinfectants, and apply sterile dressings *More serious wounds: seek medical attention in time If you are interested in natural products for skin care, you can consider using medical-grade honey (such as Manuka honey) for minor wounds or wounds that have already begun to heal under the guidance of a doctor.
