The term "wound" refers to the disruption of the body's integrated structure brought on by physical, chemical, and biological causes. After skin and soft tissue are damaged, a process known as wound healing takes place to rebuild those areas. The body naturally heals itself by overcoming damaged tissue, but the process is quite sluggish and there is a considerable risk of microbial infection. Shortening the time needed for healing or reducing unintended consequences are two ways to improve the healing process. Plants and components derived from plants have traditionally been used extensively in managing and treating numerous types of wounds. These natural substances promote tissue regeneration and healing in various ways. The current study is based on field observation in 2022-23. The field visit and interviews were conducted regularly in randomly selected areas of the Bodla Block, Kabirdham District, Chhattisgarh, India. The paper provides ethnomedicinal uses of 62 Medicinal plants belonging to 35 families used for curing wounds. The current study makes an effort to highlight various Medicinal plants that have been traditionally utilized for the same purpose.
