Abstract

Honey, a natural substance with potent medicinal properties, has been utilized for centuries in wound care and treatment.

Through a review of relevant literature, this research paper examines the biochemical composition of honey, its antimicrobial properties, its role in promoting wound healing, and its application in surgical procedures. The findings suggest that honey dressing offers numerous benefits in surgery, including infection prevention, enhanced wound healing, reduced inflammation, and minimal scarring. Additionally, honey dressing presents a cost-effective and easily accessible alternative to conventional wound care products. This paper underscores the importance of further research and clinical trials to fully elucidate the potential of honey dressing in optimizing surgical outcomes.
