abrasions



Aloe is soothing, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial. It helps in healing all kinds of wounds including abrasions.

Use the pure gel for topical application.

Calendula is anti-inflammatory, astringent and antiseptic.

Calendula promotes new skin growth and stops bleeding.

A few drops of lavender oil is said to help in healing abrasions.

The affected area can be disinfected using thyme tea or with a cup of water containing 3-5 drops of the essential oil.

Home made salves and ointments made with tea tree, calendula and comfrey are effective in treating abrasions.
