It is purported to have anti-inflammatory, antifungal, antidepressant, antiseptic, antibacterial and antimicrobial properties, as well as antispasmodic, analgesic, detoxifying, hypotensive, and sedative effects. Plantain has long been considered by herbalists to be a useful remedy for wounds and inflamed skin due to it's anti-inflammatory and healing effects The tannins (astringent) and allantoin (promotes wound healing, speeds up cell regrowth/healing and softens skin) in plantain are considered the major factors in making it a mild anti-inflammatory. Chamomile has anti-inflammatory, muscle relaxant and sedative properties. Calendula has healing and anti-inflammatory properties. Research has shown that Calendula can actually help wounds heal faster, possibly by increasing blood flow and oxygen to the affected area, which helps the body grow new tissue. Rose petals and leaves are reliable astringents that can tighten and tone tissues. Astringents can be used on wounds to pull the tissues back together or to decrease excess secretions.
