Pain Relief
Black seed oil has anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. TQ and other bioactive compounds in nigella sativa can inhibit certain inflammatory cells called cytokines and reduce inflammation.1‘A Review on Therapeutic Potential of Nigella Sativa: A Miracle Herb.’ PubMed, pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29962349.
Researchers in Indonesia looked at the topical effects of black seed oil as a balm. Balm sticks reduced acute inflammation, fluid build-up and drainage at the site of injury. The balm also relieved pain and achieved results comparable to topical application of hydrocortisone creams and ointments.5‘The Anti-Inflammatory Activity of Nigella Sativa Balm Sticks.’ core.ac.uk/reader/291483543
