Aloe vera is most commonly used as a topical medication, rubbed onto the skin rather than eaten. It has long been known as a treatment for sores, particularly burns, including sunburns.Aloe Vera plant has anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties, effective to treat muscle and joint pains. They are not only a good natural remedy for those who exercise on a daily base, but as-well for people with osteoarthritis, old injuries, surgeries, rheumatic and muscular pains or discomfort of all kinds.It is also popular for treating small skin abrasions.
It contains more than 75 potentially active components, including aloin and emodin, which act as analgesics to relieve pain.

There are a couple of ways that you can use aloe to soothe joint pain. The first is the standard topical application, massaged into the painful areas. Look for aloe gel that has been certified by the International Aloe Science Council. Some generic brands contain little actual aloe, or have had the active ingredients damaged by processing.

Second, you can find and take an aloe supplement orally. A capsule is quick and easy to take, but you can also buy pure aloe vera juice that has a mild flavor and integrates nicely into smoothies or shakes. Please note that people who take diabetes medications, stimulant laxatives, or diuretic medications should speak to their doctors before ingesting aloe.
