| Summary: | Abstract This review explores the latest developments in the use of plant extracts to promote fish wound healing. Healing from wounds is an essential part of maintaining fish health, especially in aquaculture where injuries can result in large losses. The potential therapeutic benefits of plant extracts, such as their antimicrobial, anti‐inflammatory and tissue‐regenerating capabilities, have drawn attention. This paper presents an overview of the state of the art in fish wound‐healing research, focusing on important plant extracts. It discusses these extracts' mechanisms of action, how well they work to promote wound healing, and what influences how effective they are. The review also examines future directions and possible obstacles in this area, highlighting the necessity of more clinical trials and standardised research methodologies to validate the use of plant extracts for fish wound healing. |
