Ancient tree sap could heal Children's painful sores where modern medicine Can't reach

NCT ID NCT07264686

Summary

This study is testing whether a traditional plant medicine, made from the sap of a local tree, can help heal small, infected skin ulcers in children in remote Papua New Guinea. Researchers are comparing the plant sap to a standard antiseptic cream and to no treatment to see which works best. The goal is to find an effective, locally available treatment for painful sores that often go untreated because clinics are too far away.
