The willow tree is known for its bark, which contains salicin, a compound that the body converts into salicylic acid. This substance was the basis for the development of aspirin, a widely used pain reliever and anti-inflammatory medication. Historically, willow bark has been used in traditional medicine to alleviate pain and reduce fevers.
