Jathyadi Thailam supports natural healing—it does NOT replace emergency medical care or professional wound treatment when needed.

Method 1: Minor Cuts, Scrapes & Abrasions

For: Small cuts, kitchen burns, scraped knees, minor wounds

How to apply:

1. Clean the wound: Rinse with clean running water or saline solution. Pat dry gently with clean gauze.
2. Apply Jathyadi Thailam: Using a clean cotton swab or sterile gauze, apply a thin layer of oil directly to the wound and surrounding area (about 1cm around the wound edges).
3. Cover if needed: For wounds in areas exposed to dirt or friction, cover with a sterile bandage. For open-air wounds (if clean environment), leave uncovered to allow breathing.
4. Frequency: Apply 2-3 times daily until wound closes completely. Continue for 2-3 days after closure to support complete healing.

Timeline: Most minor wounds show visible healing within 3-5 days, complete closure within 7-10 days.

Method 2: Burns (First-Degree & Minor Second-Degree)

For: Kitchen burns, sunburns, minor thermal burns (hot water, steam, etc.)

IMPORTANT: Only use for first-degree burns (red, painful, no blisters) and very minor second-degree burns (small blisters). Seek immediate medical attention for:

• Burns larger than 3 inches in diameter
• Burns on face, hands, feet, genitals, or major joints
• Third-degree burns (white, charred, or numb skin)
• Chemical or electrical burns

How to apply:

1. Cool the burn immediately: Hold under cool (not cold) running water for 10-15 minutes. Do NOT use ice.
2. Gently clean: Once cooled, gently pat dry with clean gauze.
3. Apply Jathyadi Thailam: Using a clean cotton swab, apply a generous layer of oil over the entire burned area. The cooling, soothing effect should be felt within minutes.
4. Cover loosely: Use a non-stick sterile dressing if the burn needs protection. Change dressing daily.
5. Frequency: Apply 3-4 times daily for the first 3-5 days, then 2 times daily until completely healed.

What to expect:

• Immediate cooling and pain relief
• Reduced blistering (for minor second-degree burns)
• No infection or pus formation
• Healing within 5-7 days for first-degree burns
• Minimal to no scarring when used consistently

Method 3: Chronic Wounds, Diabetic Ulcers & Non-Healing Sores

For: Diabetic foot ulcers, pressure ulcers, chronic eczema sores, non-healing wounds

CRITICAL: Chronic wounds and diabetic ulcers require professional medical supervision. Use Jathyadi Thailam as a COMPLEMENTARY treatment alongside your doctor's care, NOT as a replacement.

How to apply:

1. Consult your healthcare provider: Before starting, inform your doctor you want to add Ayurvedic wound oil to your treatment plan.
2. Clean the wound thoroughly: Use saline solution or as directed by your healthcare provider. Remove any dead tissue (debridement) if recommended by your doctor.
3. Apply Jathyadi Thailam: Using a sterile cotton swab or gauze, apply a moderate layer of oil over the wound bed and edges.
4. Dress appropriately: Follow your doctor's dressing protocol. Jathyadi works well under standard wound dressings.
5. Frequency: Apply 1-2 times daily when changing dressings, or as directed by your healthcare provider.
6. Monitor closely: Track wound size, color, discharge, and pain. Report any worsening to your doctor immediately.
