1. What is the main use of Ichthammol Ointment?
,"It is traditionally used to draw out impurities from the skin, help mature boils (deep skin abscesses/pimples), and has mild anti-inflammatory properties."
"2. Why is this ointment known as ""Black Salve""?
","It is known by this name because of its characteristic black/dark color, which comes from the active ingredient (Ichthammol) extracted from shale oils."
3. What is the correct way to use the ointment?,
"A thick layer of the ointment is applied only to the affected area, usually covered with gauze or a bandage, and the application is repeated once or twice daily."
4. Can it be used to treat acne?
