Those legs....


So, this is the joy for me of when the legs break out. And unfortunately my arms and hands are broken out too. But sometimes it's just the legs and I wear long pants. That's usually when someone will come up to me and will say... "wow your skin is just looking so much better" and some even try to reason in their head why.... like I must have eaten differently or something. Of course it has to be my fault.... but what they don't know when they make these assumptions is that under those long pants I'm wearing I'm really hurting. Well it doesn't always hurt..... just while it's breaking out, dry, after I cream it, sometimes after or while I take a shower or while I'm walking (when it gets between the back of the knees). But once I put on the cream and let it sting really badly for a few minutes it usually gets better. Well the good thing is...most people do not get to pick at their skin as much as I do. In some weird way it's kind of fun when you can just pull off some without it hurting because it's already coming off anyway. But if  you are a parent and your kids have it I would not recommend that because the skin has to be ready for it. I've learned that that layer in the inside (nethertons often has two layers that's coming off as you can see on my picture) well just leave that layer. It'll come off when it's ready, if you don't wait it can be painful or bleed.
