Prep Redundancy: Oh the many uses of Preparation H

When life tries to begin exhibiting an excessive amount of suckage all you can do is try and find something constructive to off set it. If you can have constructiveness with a side of humor, that’s even better. To that end I would like to share all the ways that Preparation H makes a good prep item.

---------------------------

• ACNE: apply a dab of Prep H to the pimple to reduce the swelling.
• ATHLETE’S FOOT: coat your feet with the salve to sooth and relieve itchy toes.
• BEE AND WASP STINGS: a liberal coat of Prep H on the sting site will reduce the swelling and relieve the pain.
• BLISTERS: apply ointment to blister to soothe the inflammation and lubricate the skin to prevent further irritation.
• BRUISES: don’t ask me why but rubbing Prep H into a bruise reportedly makes it heat faster.
• BURNS: can be used on burns like burn cream, cover with a clean, sterile cloth after application.
• COLD SORES: dab on the spot of a rising cold sore to stop the swelling.
• CUTS AND SCRAPES: apply like first aid cream to help heal them faster.
• DRY SKIN AND WINDBURN: use a small dab to soothe and speed healing
• INSECT BITES: use same as for bee stings. From experience I can tell you this works really well on mosquito bites.
• POISON IVY: relieves burning and swelling and speeds up clearing of the rash.
• SUNBURN: calms the burn and reduces the redness.
• VARICOSE VEINS: use like a salve regularly and it reduces the appearance of the veins … it acts as a “vasoconstrictor”
• WRINKLE: a secret beauty cream, Prep H moisturizes skin, shrinks puffiness around eyes, and reduces fine wrinkles around the eyes … just don’t get the stuff in your eyes.

It can also be used to grease up a finger that has a ring stuck on it ... yes, it knocks down some of that swelling and the ring eventually slips off much easier.

Good ideas but just wait until Bumblepuff sees this thread.

I've heard that you can use it on new tatoos to take some of the sting out as well.

You missed one novel usage of this stuff.... you can also dab it on your behind, it helps if you have hemorrhoids

In college, a buddy of mine was a little "tipsy" and used it as toothpaste before he went to bed.

He didn't recommend daily use.

The funny part is, in the pools in Vegas (Its become a very big thing with pool parties at the casinos lately) the guys use it on their chest to appear more "Ripped" as it constricts the skin around the chest when they put it on or some such thing. They were on TV a few weeks ago warning of the dangers of doing this. lol

Thanks for the tips, I may just have to add a few tubes of it

Can't imagine what it tastes like? But like what it does, so will try and pick up a couple of tubes of it. Thanks for the idea.
