Abstract
Naturopathy is a relatively new medical approach which combines different traditional remedies and health care practices. Tinctures, compresses, teas and other medicinal forms are used. The main sources are herbs and plants. However, their inept application often leads to unwanted side effects such as bleeding, gastrointestinal disturbances, allergic reactions, fatigue, dizziness, confusion, dry mouth, photosensitivity, hypertension, rash and a lot of others. Among the most frequently used naturopathic remedies is garlic. In parallel with its many good effects, allergic reactions and skin burns are not infrequently described. In this report, we present a case of second-degree skin burn on the dorsal lower leg caused by the use of crushed garlic over a short period of time.
