ABSTRACT
The most common burn injuries in the Turkish population are scalding (traditional Turkish tea, hot milk, liquid food, etc.), electricity, and chemical agents. However, many plants that are used as herbal medicine can also cause adverse effects such as allergic contact dermatitis and burns. Despite advances in medicine, there is a tendency to use alternative treatments as can be seen in every population, including the Turkish population. Plant-based medicines are the most common methods in folk medicine. Although modern treatment methods have been developed, traditional treatment methods are still common in low socio-economic regions. Although some seem to be useful, they can often harm most people.
