Just too sensitive.

I used the same stuff last time and it worked. It might even have been long after its expiry date but it did the trick. To the first one who asks what happened you can always respond with: "A lot of fun!" leaving them to work out which is your sort of fun

Well, to be very honest, after reading this I thought : I do hope that you are not becoming allergic to him! I honestly cannot think of anything off the bat - really can't - I use to do things to him quite unintentionally - like running him over - little things like that. I"ll get back later if I can think of anything

Hi Thea. I don't suppose you have any aloe vera growing in your garden? I keep aloe vera growing outside the front door for speedy access. Cut a tip off, peel back the skin and apply the jel - VERY speedy results. Aloe vera is exceptional for scalds and burns. That is my biggest problem in the kitchen (because of my stiff fingers) An application of aloe takes the sting out immediately and there is no blistering. If I don't use aloe, it stings like mad and a blister appears very quickly. Aloe is also great for cuts, sunburn and any skin problem. Before my sons insisted that I use top quality sharp knives I was always cutting my fingers. They insisted you only cut fingers with a blunt knife - and they were right. I haven't cut my fingers since using their gift of sharp knives. PS For the locals: put a sign round your neck - I had FUN. Are you jealous?

What do u care what people think. how silly. i always heard when u play u pay just remember how u got it & enjoy the memories. it's nonone's buisness. If they are rude enough to ask about it, shock them & tell the truth & they'll probably think u are lying.

easy answer to this dillema thea. scarf up to temporarily hide what may look like you were out picking fights last night, then go and really pick a fight (preferably with another woman of approximately the same size) and once you've exchanged a few punches in public nobody will suspect that your first bruise was already there

never heard of anything like that before. it seems that your skin is really very sensitive....you should take more care. i do not remember having any similar problem except once i had an accident when i got a swollen nose and lips. it did take a few days to heal but then i had the story of the accident to tell. i suggest you also get an eye band (pirate style) and pretend you thought it was a costume party....

I have my own tale to relate. Sometimes, when the razor is new, it is also a bit sharp on the edges. Hence, the blade is rather sharp. I have this inkling to shave with my heart's content and say I using the cologne and spritzing it around or something and ahem, keeping some clean, it will be so hurtful. I think I can even scream during this one moment; the stinging, oh wow!

It could be in a worse spot! At least you can walk, try Aloe Vera cream or natural is best! It works been there done that! tdemex

LOL. That's too funny. At least you had your "accident" while enjoying the company of another. I used to have a black lab and I would always rough house with her. She usually got excited and would have my arm in her mouth as we played. While I was dating my now husband, I went to work after playing with the dog and I had a big bruise and teeth marks from where we had been playing. My boss's husband thought my boyfriend at the time, grabbed me and bruised me. They tried for two weeks to get me to go to counseling. They told me I just needed to admit it and move on. LOL I didn't have to stay with a guy like that. I almost told them my b*tch did it. LOL

Hello Thea. I currently have a curved burn on my arm from a cooking pot. I am teasing my boyfriend by telling his if anyone asks what it is and how it got there, I'm going to tell them he bit me, but forgot to put his top teeth in first.

Hello, Thea. Well, we all know what you've been up to this weekend - good on you, girl! As it happens, I have a rather nice story about an accidental injury I suffered. Tony (or Basil, as you seem to prefer) and I were moving a futon, when I slipped and bashed my left jaw on the wooden arm. It hurt like hell at the time, and I had an enormous bruise next day. I've always bruised easily, by the way. I must be a sensitive, delicate flower as well. Well, my daughter was coming around, and I was dreading it, as she and Tony had got off to a rather rocky start. My ex, her father, had poured out a lot of poison, giving Tony a very bad press indeed, and of course, she believed a lot of it. Anyway, I thought let's confront this head on, so when she obviously asked what I'd done, I said, 'We had a row last night, and I lost,' and waited for the flak. To my amazement she came back with, 'I know he'd never do that to you - what really happened?' That was when I knew for sure she'd finally accepted my second, improved model husband. It sounds like nothing writing it out here, but it meant the world to me. Accidental injury tale Number 2 is more recent. Tony has his hands everywhere at night - not always in a loving sense! In October, we had visitors in Spain, which meant we were out nearly every night. One night, we went to bed, and his arm came across and he squeezed me just under the armpit so hard it woke me up and I yelled out. I thought no more of it, but the next evening, when we went out, I put on a really strappy top, as it was so hot. Somebody said, 'What have you been up to, then?' I looked in the bar mirror, and there was a bruise in the shape of a hand! Of course, I then remembered the previous night, but Tony had slept all through it, and he said 'I never did that!' Well, that bought out the wicked in me, and I asked all our male friends who were with us to lay their hand across my bruise. Cinderella with a twist, if you like! Of course, Tony's hand fitted perfectly, and much hilarity ensued. Only trouble was, I had to cover up for over a week until the bruise went, and it was the hottest October for 30 years in Spain!

Hello my friend How are you, hope everything is going good, sounds like it lol Just keep using your cream and hopefully it will go away sooner rather than later, maybe he used a new aftershave or did he actually use the windex lol, what is that all about, I do remember you mentioning something about windex before but I can't remember, anywho use the cream and tell our friend to take it easy next time, we woman have really sensitive skin so there is no need to be rubbing all crazy and things lol Glad to know everything is going well for you my friend(besides this, you know what I mean) smoochessss

Ouch, Thea! I use nappy rash cream for spots, and it's better than any expensive lotion or potion I've ever bought. When was younger, I had a mild allergy to cats. Bit wierd, considering now I own one! But it was only mild, unless a cat hair got anywhere near my eyes. I stayed over at a friends house one night after a night out, and her cat was used to sleeping in the spare room, so it jumped onto the bed. During the night, I must have got a hair in my eye, and I woke up rubbing it. I looked in he bathroom mirror, and my eye was like a golf ball! Almost swollen closed, and really red. I had to get a bus back to my own town, and I could NOT believe it when the biggest gossip of my age just happened to be on the bus. Of course, she started commiserating on my "black eye", and th more I tried to explain, the more she kept saying "It's ok - I won't tell anyone." Yeah, right. It was all over that I had been in a fictional fight, and ended up with a shiner. And my mother didn't believe me either, and wouldn't speak to me for two weeks because of the "shame". I wouldn't mind, but I've actually never been in a proper fight my whole life! Lol! I hope it heals quickly, Thea!

Hi Thea, I'm afraid that my last facial bruising was due to the airbag of my car (like the Lamb?)and it was a doozy. The impact gave me a large egg size lump on my forehead and two beautifully colored black eyes, first the dark dark purple which eventually lighten to lilac and then the greens settled before the yellowish tones. I was a virtual rainbow for almost 1 1/2 months, if not longer. At first glance, it was pretty obvious car accident, as the lump started to go down and the coloring started to lighten, it began to look more like I had joined a boxing club. Then the bruising began to be more on one eye and the boyfriend began getting the "look". He made me wear sunglasses. As that I am quite petite and he is over 6 feet tall, many people that saw us out in public gave him quite the "look" I tried make-up but it does not cover enough and my dad made me rub a hard boiled egg, as soon as its boiled but cool enough not to burn (take off shell) on the bruising and swore it would help. I'm not sure if it did but I did it anyway. I wasn't feeling any pain so after a bit I forgot that I was "injured looking" and wondered why I was stared at but would remember. I offered up explanations like, "You should see the other guy," and "I kissed my airbag," "I had a fight with a guard rail and I lost." So, I humored the gossip and made light and jokes but I felt the worst for my boyfriend as he was indeed the receiving end of many scowls.

Recently I got up to what some people call a "frog" on my arm. It eventually disintegrated into a big bruise, but it was a huge knot on my upper left arm. I do not remember running into anything, or getting hit or punched by anyone, but here it is. Ouch!!!

Perhaps he had used to some shaving lotion on his skin that you are allergic too. Did he have stubble rash, as this can cause irritation? You must have quite sensitive skin, and obviously something strong set off a reaction. You would need a cream with no perfume to help heal it and reduce the reaction. Yes, it can be embarrassing when we cant cover up these cosmetic problems.

eek.stubbleburn sucks..there's no way of covering that either.

hi thea but at least it was not from something you did that you should not have done. he he. I wanted to hang some draperies in my dining room when we still had a house. the step ladder seemed too much of a deal to lug all over. so I put a chair on top of the end table that was next to the passthrough where I needed to hang the draperies. I knew I would have to move my contraption to get the other side but was doing okay'balanced on the chair . I was reaching out to get to the middle of the area and wouldn't you know the chair slipped, then did a nose dive and I did one with it. I had two nice big black shiners and huge bruises on my left leg so my hubby insistedon taking me to emergency room. well I did not even want anyone to see me but they x-rayed and chided me for my stupidity but no bones were broken, and my knee was only strained.I looked like I had been in an auto accident. My husband did not let me forget that I should have used the ]step ladder. I told him, did it ever occur to you that you could have done that for me. H e laughed at me.

Hi, thea09. I am very sorry about your chin. It sounds like you have a razor burn. You may need to use cream for this that targets sensitive skin. I know many people that bruise easily due to their skin being very sensitive. I don't like getting any scratches or bruises. Sometimes, I feel like it is the end of the world! But, I later deal with it and act as if nothing ever happened. By then my bruise will be healed and cleared. I hope that you can find some relief and a product that will clear this razor burn up.. Don't worry about being ashamed of going out in public..
