Perianal wounds are tears in the perineal tissue that occur due to the birth canal, either spontaneously torn or episiotomy. A combination of aloe vera and betel leaf (Piper betle L.) can be used as an alternative healing agent for perineal wounds. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of aloe vera and betel leaf ointment on perineal wound healing. The study design was a quasi-experimental study, with a population of postpartum women on day 1 (second-degree perineal wounds) and a sample size of 32. The research instrument used a REEDA scale observation sheet.
