Propolis is used in various medical fields, including pediatrics, otolaryngology, ophthalmology, gynecology, and dentistry. Its anesthetic, antimicrobial, and deodorant properties also make it a valuable ingredient in cosmetics. Historically, propolis has shown promise in the treatment of more serious conditions such as diphtheria, tuberculosis, and scarlet fever, though further research is ongoing. It should not be considered a replacement for conventional medical treatments for these conditions.
