Records are identified through database searches. Paper restricted in publications years 2018-2023, focus in the field of Health sciences, nursing, public health, clinical sciences and publication type is the article. Data were analyzed using a VOS viewer, and then the analysis was reviewed by co-occurrence and co-authors. Publication searches related to garlic and wound healing yielded 47,351 articles. After screenings through the specified criteria, the number of articles obtained was 12,472. The peak of publications about garlic and wound healing was in 2018. On the other hand, the lowest number was in 2023. Research on the effect of garlic in wound healing is carried out by the fields of medicine, public health or nurses and other fields such as agricultural, vetenary, and food sciences, medical and biomolecular chemistry, pharmacology and pharmaceutical sciences, and medical biotechnology. The peak of publications about precision health and precision medicine was in 2021; the lowest number was in 2023. Research related to the use of garlic has been carried out on acute and diabetic wounds. However, safe concentrations are a concern for more in-depth research on their use in wound care.
