Another burn clinic followup appointment tomorrow! I had an appointment on the 22nd that went quite well, and they said my burns would basically be healed by now. My middle finger is totally fine & barely even discolored anymore, my ring finger is pinkish but the wounds are totally closed, and my pinky wounds definitely look better but they're not 100% closed yet. Despite the fact that my skin still has 17 1/2 more hours to sew itself up before the appointment starts, I kind of feel like a student who's about to turn in lovely and/or procrastinated homework or something. edit: snipe YeahTubaMike fucked around with this message at 03:25 on Jun 29, 2023 |

As an aside, it kind of started to itch and I Googled it because I thought it meant my pinky was going to fall off or I was going to get gangrene like a 19th century soldier or some poo poo, but apparently that's a sign of healing, so that's cool.

Bad Purchase posted:oh yeah, you're right. i looked at the box. i thought it was just coloring, but it does have some flavoring to it. the one i have is pretty mild though, compared to flavored salts i've tried in the past. so it's not exactly "unflavored", but i guess mildly flavored. in any case, it's very good on popcorn along with some coconut oil. Coconut oil on popcorn? Do you use it to oil a pot that you heat up kernels in or just drip it over actual popped corn?

i had a small burn a year or so around the knuckle of my first finger from bumping into the heating rod of my toaster oven, and it started itching as it healed. took several weeks, and it was a small burn about third of an inch in diameter i think it must've been a pretty bad burn, though, because i didn't really feel pain. just smelled burned skin and there was a dull hot/cold sensation. must've gone right through whatever nerves were there. it started to get painful over the next couple days, but never super bad, then itchy, and now there's no trace. long live the new flesh.

Just dripping it over already popped corn is some hedonist poo poo. yep, cook the seeds in the oil. i use a silicone microwave popper because it's a bit faster and less messy than doing it stovetop, but either will work. probably an air popper would work fine too, though i'm not sure if you're supposed to oil seeds in those.

Makes sense, I wish I had thought of this. I have that big tub of coconut oil from Costco that I haven't been able to put a noticeable dent in, this is perfect.

It's pretty commonly used as hair oil among Black people. Bad Purchase posted:i had a small burn a year or so around the knuckle of my first finger from bumping into the heating rod of my toaster oven, and it started itching as it healed. took several weeks, and it was a small burn about third of an inch in diameter Yeah, I burned myself pretty bad on the 6th, and judging from what you're saying, it makes chronological sense that I'd be in the itchy stage. Thanks for the additional reassurance. edit: Nooner posted:Hang on I've been there a lot, you're gonna need a couple of extended release addys, a pint of vodka, and gram or two of weed, but you'll get it all done in time to turn in drat, it's too bad I didn't have access to any of those things until after I stopped having homework YeahTubaMike fucked around with this message at 04:07 on Jun 29, 2023 |

I've been told Itching is generally good in these cases cause that means that you have a lot of blood flow in the area. Also, if you have access to aloe vera plants, try bandaging your burns with the sap, it works wonders.

my dad, one of the dumbest people i know, told me last year that he licks any cuts or burns he gets because "that's what animals do". i asked him if he also licked his own rear end in a top hat, but apparently that's different. he has a PhD in physics. people call him doctor anyway, you could try licking your burns

cut my finger up awhile back. it’s almost healed but this layer of dead skin decided it was time to go a bit early tonight; stuck to my bandage; then ripped clear off—revealing an entire fingertip of the tenderest not-quite-ripe babyskin i have ever had the misfortune (or possible fortune? ) of experiencing weirdest drat injury i’ve ever had e: it’s all wrapped up and the slightest breeze feels like touching the pain dimension TrashMammal fucked around with this message at 07:44 on Jun 29, 2023 |

Opiorphin exists, but to dull the pain as you introduce an infection vector by licking the wound because we've evolved beyond using our mouths for environmental manipulation and the cleanliness has gone to rot, in a sense.

smugworth is a coward. he knew what he did and knew he had to face the time for it and yet took retribution nonetheless. classic capricious style gbs modertation. in fact i've requested on the mod diwcord that he be upgraded to a blue star
