to offer you a chance to learn from my mistake?

....... and probably have a laugh at my expense.......

No matter how congested/blocked up/coldy you are, NEVER empty a whole jar of Vicks Vaporub into your bath water then get in it.

It stings.

Ouch!

Ouch! I had their bath stuff once and it was really good but couldn't get rid of the smell for days afterwards which led to some interesting comments at work!

Ouch!

Never use deodorant wipes as fem fresh wipes even if it is accidental because it fucking stings to gretna green & back especially if you do so in your works toliet cubicle which reduces the chance of sitting in the communal sink to wash it away to approx 0%.

ouch & oopss lifeis

And to top it all off, I'm still congested (well, my nose is........)

I'm going back to point a shower 'up there' for the foreseable future

I did that Bohica. Only it was a Flash wipe I grabbed instead

Oh, give your bits a rinse with milk or apply some yogurt.

I did one worse a few days ago: I gave DS2's bottom (between the cheeks) a good hand wash in the shower after chopping chillis. I wondered why he was saying "Oow, ow" whilst I was doing it. I had washed my hands previously as well, poor little man.

Exactly how conjested did you think you were

You are meant to inhale the stuff, not insert it!!!!

Books all your gynecologist appointments, You'll be minty fresh for weeks! :o

OMG! I'm so sorry but I laughed so much I don't think my pants are dry!
Mind you if you think vick is bad , dont give Olbas oil a go.

Ouch, although I did at the minty fresh fanjo.

Another top tip: don't confuse facial cleanser and nail polish remover unless you want a shiny red face.

Dh once tried to brush his teeth with Canesten. [boak]

Ouch, feeling your pain OP! Hubby once handed me a pot of vicks when I was sick and told me to dab it inside my nostrils... that hurt a whole bunch... he got muddled with that and vaseline to stop the streaming nose from leaving red sore patches...

Feel better soon :)

My daft mother has mustard baths. She says it works.

Hope you get better soon....

Never ever get up in the middle of the night to apply anusol to piles without first putting on your glasses. You'll confuse the anusol with the deep heat and it. will. not. end. well.

Are you sure it wasn't Original Mint Sauce Source?

Dee, that reminds me of that classic 'what not to do' thread - I PMSL reading about somebody's DH who had gone into the dark bathroom to sort himself out - but accidentally used self-tan lotion instead of lube. He ended up with one orange palm :o

What? What thread?? Link please!!!!!! :o

It is somewhere in this thread - can't remember how far along it is.

I'm afraid you'll just have to read the whole thing. Hope you've got several hours to spare :o

So funny but feeling your pain! Ow!

Hubby reached for the Bongela to treat a mouth ulcer and applied Bazooka cream instead. He's a terrible hypocondriac, so you can imagine the fallout!
