Aloe vera vs. paraffin: which dressing eases skin graft pain better?
NCT ID NCT07057557
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares aloe vera gel dressings to standard paraffin-based dressings for pain relief at the donor site after skin graft surgery. About 72 adults aged 18-60 will receive one of the two dressings, and their pain will be measured on day 7 using a standard pain scale. The goal is to see if aloe vera provides better pain control and reduces the need for extra pain medication.
