Menthol Accident!!!!

[Domtine]

Tonight after dissolving menthol crystals, I was pouring them storage bottles. Accidentally I spilled a fair bit maybe 10-20ml onto my lap and my [CENSORED].

THIS STUFF BURNS I tell you. it's the sort of pain you feel when u put your hand in the freezer for too long. And dissolving menthol crystals is an endothermic reaction so cold water definitely dun alleviate the problem. u gotta use fairly warm water.

Menthol dissolves into an oily liquid in PG and soap is unable to fully wash it off. Only way is to use warm water and wash the area until it feels more bearable.

Be careful all DIYers. I typing this with chilly thighs, buttocks and [CENSORED]

Awww.I remember long long long ago cutting small red chilli as a child with the chilli seeds flying onto my body,i was not wearing a shirt at home.The spot on the skin where the seeds land on burns,turn red and even break!Maybe child skin are more delicate.

Here's another accident unrelated to vaping which also happened when i was in primary school.Chopping fruits really hard and end up the chopper blade cutting deep into the thumb.Kept quiet,serve the fruits on the plate.And then told my mum,ma i very tired,i going sleep.Hid under the blanket and tried to stop the bleeding.But eventually discovered when my mom notice quite a fair bit of blood all over the sheets.
That's some stories to share from my amazing ability to remember many things from younger years.My sibling don't even remember his.
It's a blessing to remember!

Try using Vaseline or Petroleum Jelly . If don't have, KY also can. Rub Hard

things that are in oil dissolve with other oils.. or at least their potency does. I cut hab peppers years ago without gloves.. suffered all day before my cousin (a chef) told me to use olive oil (or corn.. or safflower.. or any oil really) to disperse the active ingredients.. and keep changing the oil until the affected area feels no sting. In my case with the peppers.. it took a while, and I was already burnt pretty badly since the active oils had seeped in my skin for hours, but it did help.
