Salve

Canon Legends version → Linked from 11 articles

Salves were a type of natural medicinal substance. During the Battle of Jedha in 382 BBY, wounded members of the Path of the Open Hand applied salves to each other's blaster burns while taking refuge in the Jedha City tapbar Enlightenment on the moon Jedha. After the battle, the Jedi Padawan Enya Keen offered salve to the Roonan Path member Goi Ganok for a dark bruise on his arm while interrogating him on the moon Eirie. A Republic Pathfinder medic later applied a healing salve to blaster wound that human Jedi Knight Gella Nattai had sustained and then bandaged it. The herbalist Reya Nell specalized in extracting salves from Ueda conifer pines and sap on the planet Ueda, with her secret ingredients giving her an edge over the competition.

The ointment burn salve, used for burns and inflammations, was commonly found among medical kits like ones used by the Galactic Empire. In 3 ABY, the Imperial stormtrooper Thara Nyende brought some burn salve among supplies she delivered for patrons at her uncle's cantina on the planet Sullust. One patron, the Sullustan Myan, was handed a tube of burn salve to aid some injured workers from dorm four.
