well it turns out that the reaction I had on my skin is all infected now and has spread down to my lower arms. I have to take antibiotics for a week. My arms look so disgusting that it makes my normal kp arms look good. Speaking of which this is coming back severely as I am not able to keep up with normal routines. Please take care with what you use and mix together, it looks like it will be months before this heals- what will my KP be like by then, how can I keep it at bay while this heals up any suggestions?

Hey UK Helen! I'm so sorry to hear about your horrible reaction to Oxy! I was just wondering if you have thought about trying to put aloe on your skin-such as used for sunburns, etc? Also I read that Pure Olive Oil is a big help in helping skin irritations. It used to be used to treat all kinds of problems way back when-before all of the products of today. Another strange sounding "tip" is to try Spices. One time I was at the Beach and this girl was stung by a Manofwar (sp?) She immediately developed huge red splotches all over where she was stung. Some woman at the hotel put regular food spices on the splotches and it took away the stinging and helped heal her quicker! Hope my suggestions help! I feel so bad for you! GOOD LUCK!
