Instead of lime juice for open wound, can you use lemon juice?
[Aajonus]
No. Lemon is a bacterial encourager, promoter. It encourages bacterial breakdown, that's why it's a great food to marinate meats. Lime juice is completely antibacterial, antiseptic.

Can you use the peel as well?
[Aajonus]
Peel won't work. It's too much of oil, it's a very stringent oil. Talk about burning without stopping. Squeeze that on.
