Hi.. I have used CS for contact dermatitis and it does wonders. Cleared it up. I have used it also on an open wound. If wound bleeding, put a bit of Cayenne tincture on it to stop bleeding and then use CS until healed. My husband came home with a horrendous rash all over both arms. Washed area with jewelweed soap, then used CS on it 4 times a day and it cleared in 3 days.
I could go on and on about using it topically. Diane M
