Heat the resulting mixture over low heat, strain through cheesecloth and cool. Lubricate the udder lobes affected by mastitis with the finished ointment once a day for 2-3 weeks. Aloe vera applications are effective for udder injuries, because aloe juice promotes rapid wound healing. Applications with aloe must be performed once a day for 3 weeks.

The clay mass is applied to the affected areas of the udder and left to dry completely.
