Let me explain this Instructable, The other night at Scouts, we where soldering an LED to some wires (I may make an Instructable of what we where making eventually) and I managed to drop the red hot soldering iron onto the back of my and burning my finger (see picture... I want sympathy dammit it hurt!)... I did the usual trick of running it under a cold tap immediately, and despite stinging like hell I carried on like a trooper and after the meeting went home. I didn't even swear infront of my Scouts, aint'cha proud? ;) hehe
Knowing that I had only obtained a MINOR burn, I decided to treat it with Aloe Vera which has many medicinal properties. In burns it soothes the sting, cools the skin and speeds up recovery time (IN MY EXPERIENCE)
Over the next few steps I shall show you how to harvest the Aloe Vera and how to administer it. Apologies for the poor photo quality, as when I burnt my self I only had my cellphone on me, so where I have googled the images I have accredited them to the sites they rightly belong to.
