A member asked:
Does witch hazel help with scabs? what should i do if i have a really big one on my chin (its a very dark red now)? how long will it take to heal?

Witch Hazel: Although Witch Hazel has been used as a cleanser, anti-inflammatory, and tonic, in your case it sounds like there is a well formed scab. In that situation the Witch Hazel may only serve to dry out the skin.
