“Yunnan Baiyao (YNBY; “White medicine from the Province of Yunnan” in Mandarin) is a well-known proprietary traditional Chinese medicine product. The original formula is believed to contain several herbs with notoginseng as the major ingredient. It is promoted as a dietary supplement that can be used both externally and internally to stop bleeding and to treat cancer in humans and in animals. It is also claimed to provide relief from minor aches and pains of muscles and joints associated with backache, arthritis, strains, bruises, sprains, and frostbite.” – Sloan kettering

“Yunnan Baiyao was invented in 1902 by Dr. Qu Huan Zhang in Yunnan Province. Yuannan Baiyao is the best all around formula to stop traumatic bleeding and prevent infection. It is a must for your medicine cabinet or first aid kit. The ingredients that make up Yunnan Baiyao were a secret, kept by only one family of doctors. The communist government forced the family to give up the formula and it became the property of the state, which made it available cheaply and in variety of forms. Yunnan Baiyao became famous because it was an important part of battlefield medicine when the Chinese fought against the Japanese in World War II.
Yunnan Baiyao was part of China’s aid to Vietnam during the Vietnam War, due to its effectiveness in treating battlefield injuries.
Yunnan Baiyao both stops bleeding and removes blood stasis.
In clinical studies, Yunnan Baiyao is shown to speed up clotting and reduce inflammatory response.
In Chinese medicine it is said to dispel blood stasis and to stop bleeding, while also reducing swelling. dispel blood stasis and helping blood to clot are seemingly contradictory actions. Yet these two actions are what makes Yunnan Baiyao so suitable for healing wounds. As the bleeding stops, blood congeals in the wound. This congealed blood sometimes blocks normal circulation and prevents the wound from healing properly. Yunnan Baiyao stops the bleeding but simultaneously encourages normal circulation, removing pus and congealed blood, which can prevent the flesh from being properly nourished. This helps the flesh to regenerate with minimal scarring.” – Internal Arts International (IAI)
