Plantain or Ribwort

An infusion made from the leaves is a very effective natural cure for chesty coughs. Leaves can also be used as poultices for cuts, burns and sores.

certainly plantains are a great resource, but I would be very careful in regards to using them as a remedy for open wounds. You might want to check out a late posting of mine HERE on plantains.
