Findings
Calendula showed promise for acute wounds—animal studies and one human trial found it sped up the inflammation phase and boosted healing tissue growth. For chronic wounds like leg ulcers and burns, results were inconsistent: it helped some venous ulcers shrink but didn't improve diabetic ulcers or burn healing in human trials.
