Beware of open wounds

If you currently have any open wounds or active skin infections, do not take an Epsom salt bath. While ancient medicine may have used Epsom salt baths to heal wounds, they can further irritate wounds or infections. It should be used more for preventative treatment, but if you’re facing an active wound or infection, speak to your doctor about the best course of action.
