Aloe vera vs paraffin dressing for skin graft pain
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial compares aloe vera dressing with paraffin tulle dressing to see which one reduces pain better at the area where a skin graft was taken. If you need a skin graft and are not allergic to either dressing, this study may help find a gentler way to manage your pain.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 60 years old.

- You do not have a medical condition that changes how you feel pain (such as diabetes, nerve problems, or if you take strong pain medicines like opioids).

This study compares two types of dressings used on the area where a skin graft is taken from, to see which one helps the wound heal better and with less discomfort.
This study compares standard wound care to a special vacuum dressing (negative pressure therapy) after skin graft surgery on the lower leg for skin cancer. The goal is to see if the vacuum dressing helps the graft heal better.
This trial tests two different dressings used on the area where a skin graft is taken from (the donor site) to see which one heals better and is more comfortable. If you are having a skin graft, this study compares both dressings on the same wound so you can see which works best.
This study compares two ways to treat painful long-lasting wounds: one uses your own fat (fat grafting) plus standard care, and the other uses standard care alone. It aims to see if adding fat grafting reduces pain better than standard care.
This study tests how well a pig-based covering dressing works on skin graft donor-site wounds (where skin is taken to make a graft). It may help support faster, safer healing after a split-thickness skin graft.
This study tests whether applying aloe vera gel to a cesarean section wound helps it heal better. It may reduce pain, swelling, or scarring after surgery.
