It's commonly used externally to treat various skin conditions such as cuts, burns and eczema. It is alleged that sap from Aloe Vera eases pain and reduces inflammation. It is particularly good at treating long sufferers of athlete's foot.

Cut the leaf open and use the sap for all of the above.
It's also good to use the sap as a face mask every month, it stimulates cell reproduction.

As the other respondent said, you can simply break off a leaf and rub the gel that seeps from the broken area on sores, inflammation, burns, infections etc on your skin....or just use it to moisturise.


I believe that it CAN be consumed, and is supposed to be good for stomachs, but you might want to double check this.
