It’s not for me. My husband is in France cycling. He accidentally stepped back into a motorbike exhaust and burned the back of his leg.
It was covered with cold water, then iced water, and ointment provided by the motorbikers.
He wants to continue cycling. Any suggestions for dressings etc so he can continue.?
Does anyone know any French?

If you use Google translate, you can speak rather than type - it’s easier and the pharmacist can reply, just switch the language round

He has been to a pharmacy. Has a dressing. He is on his way up a mountain.
No word of replacement dressings. I will ask later.
