Does Aloe Really Treat a Sunburn?

Aloe vera has been used medicinally for thousands of years, but its effectiveness in healing skin, particularly burns, is still under research. Some studies suggest it may help burns heal faster and reduce pain due to its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. However, human studies are limited and potentially biased.
