Goin through an old box of Pure oils, clove, tea tree, oil of oregano, etc. and grabbed one that had LEAKED.
Not thinking, i popped the tips of those three fingers into my mouth
To clean the oil off them.
Baaad move!
Don't know which pure oil i put in my mouth but you would have
Thought it to be lit gasoline, it was a fire on my tongue that only diminished very slowly over an hour and converted to just plain pain over the next two days. I'm on my third day, and it is just SORE.
STUPID should hurt, and it does!
BTW- It aintfunny!

Ouch!

I was using oil of oregano on a ouchie tooth once and got a drop in the corner of my lip. Ouchie!

Good news was the oil made my skin peel and under that it was pink and healthy. Not only that but it smoothed out some fine line wrinkles in that area.

Eureka! I've found a natural wrinkle be gone! Where my money at?

:D

A friend was a DI in the Marines. He said the reason they scream at recruits when they put their hands near their face is that they tend to get sick, and it messes up the training schedule.

It is inconvenient for the sergeants. :)

Exactly why you need to use one of these.

In a similar vein...

If you have multiple Rx creams make sure you are grabbing the right one for whatever you are treating. The other night (way too tired) I grabbed the wrong one (basically an aspirin-cream meant for topical application for arthritis). That got applied to some rather sensitive tissue.... Owie, THE BURN!

I had a cut on a finger that was a pain for a week or more. Nothing seemed to help it. I put a dap of oregano oil on it and it was cleared up the next morning. It did sting for a minute but it worked.

I've got you beat. In the service, I had a friend from Thailand. Once upon a time I was eating some fiery little green peppers that his mother had sent him.

We were watching football on a Sunday afternoon.

After a while, I had to urinate and forgot I'd been munching on those peppers! I will NEVER make that painful mistake again!

So don’t do crap like that. It’s fairly apparent that you’re getting weaker cognitively as the years roll on. Just keep your own counsel.

Pride comes before the fall.....Pride month ended.
I was going thru a large box, Gaylord, four by four by six feet tall, at the bins one day. They are often messy, as things leak or spill at times. This box had a series of messy sticky liquids in it. NO idea what they were as I kept going thru it. I came across a bottle of honey that was leaking......my mind said, that's it, so I licked my finger.

It was not honey on my finger. It was a very good soap that went capillary in my mouth, instantly....

I instantly understood why no kid ever wants his mouth washed out with soap....once will train them.

I learned my lesson.

My son-in-law told me that when he was about 11 years old he frequently smoked cigarettes. His mother strongly disapproved and would always check for cigarette smell. He said that mints usually worked pretty well to conceal the smell from his breath, but his fingers were the giveaway. How shall I say this, he would rectify the situation by putting his fingers in a very dark place. Son-in-law reported that it always worked, his mother could never smell cigarettes on his fingers!

I did that but to my eyes. Years ago when I lived in NYC, I got a small can of the stuff on Canal street "Just in case" wanted to make sure it worked, so at the next subway stop I walked all the way to the end of the platform, let off a tiny squirt, yup it worked. I wiped the top off with my finger and got on the subway, about 20 mins later something got in my eye.. yeah you guessed it, I rubbed, MAN that ride home sucked lol

When our daughter was about 2.5 years old it was a thing to use female hygiene sprays. I had one. We also had a spray on can of Heat. Yup. DD silently (they are good at that, they are) got into the bathroom and used the Heat as she had seen me use the hygiene spray. Our bad, very bad... She sounded like a fire truck siren going off in the bathroom. We tried wiping her off but she was writhing too much. Finally we turned on the tub faucet to cold and upended her necked nether region under the flow. The fire siren slowly wound down. She was fine and we moved the spray cans to a safe space. Lesson learned. Also, no more hygiene sprays.

When I had RA pain in my hands one Doctor prescribed
Capsacian (PEPPER) cream for my hands, to reduce the pain.
Crazy ass doctor. It traveled all over my body lighting my eyes, my lips everything I touched on painful fire.
I washed and washed my hands (UNDER fingernails!) before it was finally off them! Never used it again!
Coulda killed that Dr. I didn't know what it was
and he never warned me.
NOT appropriate for HANDS!
