I will anwser your question about Witch Hazel, but I would prefer that we didn't start a list of misconceptions as it could turn into tip sharing.

Witch Hazel is not approved to go inside of a wound. It shouldn't be used on broken skin or inside of a laceration or abrasion. On intact skin it has some beneficial effect of limiting bruising if applied immediately after an injury or on itchy or dry skin.

It is impossible to buy pure witch hazel oil in todays market, and many of the additives that are in witch hazel oils, creams, and ointments are not safe to put on broken skin.
