If not go to the chemist and ask for their suggestions, I used to work in a very busy chippy, and we all got burns one of my burns was so bad i had to get a jab in the hospital!!! They gave me flammazine (sp) it went on for 2 days then back to work, the heat of the pans used to irritate the burns and i found it helpful just to let the air at it!!
The chemist may suggest a meapore dressing!! Or follow sexymouse's advice!!
I was going to say get a big meopore dressing too - to protect it and help it to form a scab. It needs to be as dry as possible - infection can get in if it stays wet. Keep an eye on it for colour changes - I'd pop to the chemist and ask the pharmacist to take a look.Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily DickinsonJanice 1964-2016

Just picked up DH from the A & E. He has prostatitis....never heard of it but he's been signed off for 2 weeks and has a load of antibiotocs..
I think I'm going to have to cancel my mystery shops, though cause I think he is going to be in bed all day and I can't take the children..I'm struggling to make the final decision, though cause I could do with the money???
I would love more children ( I think). In fact....anyway that's another story.
I want someone to ask me if I know whats causing it so I can say 'lots and lots of sex!'
Anyway, I'm going to get back to my list....0 -
