Brief Summary   Any physical injuries resulting in a breakage of the skin are known as wounds which can be categorized into two types namely: acute and chronic wounds. Ideal healing of the wounds is necessary to restore the normal functioning of the skin. There are several medications available to manage the wounds. The World Health Organization is also encouraging the use of traditional medicines in developing countries as these are cheaper than synthetic drugs and also have minimal side effects on the patient. In this study, we will formulate herbal cream from the extracts of Aristolochia indica, Andrographis panicualta, Commiphora caudata, Chloroxylon swietenia &Tridax procumbens based on the results obtained from in-vivo studies. The plants selected for formulating the herbal formulations have significant antibacterial, immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory activities, which are complementary to the wound healing process. The growing popularity of natural and herbal medications, the easy availability of raw materials, cost-effectiveness and the paucity of reported adverse reaction, prompted us to formulate a polyherbal topical preparation and assess its wound healing ability. The combination is used in order to enhance the wound healing activity
