How stupid can I be????

[glo]

I took the kids to the pond for swimming lessons this morning. Aswe were leaving..my oldest left her shoes in the car, so I gave her my slip ons. Well it is a walk to the car...and you guessed it I burned the bottoms of my feet big time. I am in so much pain...OUCHIE!!!!

Anyone have any suggestions???


Oh and I even stepped on gum twice..

my feetsies are killing!!!!

 

[Robinrs]

I couldn't resist.... PO' GLO!!!

Go soak those tootsies in some epsom salt, honey! Works like magic!

Do you have any aloe vera gel. It works great on sunburns so maybe it will help your tootsies.

 

[browneyes]

Ouchie! The only suggestion I have is to let your dd's and your dh cater to your every whim now. I hope you get to feeling better.

You may want to ice them for a while also.
Hope your feet feel better soon.

Yikes, poor baby!

I second the Epson salts and/or aloe vera.

 

[Hnymoon@Dixie]

After you soak them, ALOE gel is always good!

I did the ice thing, and I put aloe on them, but I can still feel the heat in them... I can't put my feet down flat

So, I guess you won't be going dancing anytime soon, huh, glo? (sorry, couldn't resist . . .)


Cool soaks, aloe, solarcaine, and ibuprofen (anti-inflammatory) will all help.

Hope you feel better soon, glo!

Ouch!! Can't do better than the previous recommendations. Take care of those tootsies!! Hope you feel better soon!

Oops, just thought of this, pickle juice. My DH heard that there is something in there that just takes the heat right out. He either knew or heard of someone getting burned and the pickle juice prevented the burn from being 3rd degree.

Is this a rhetorical question, glo??

Just kidding...I am sure they must hurt...so sorry that happened!! Soak em!!

Welcome to the club..

 

[kejoda]

I hope your feeling better soon. You didn't grow up in the south did you?

You had me rolling about the gum though.

If only you had pads on your feet like a cat!

Hope your footsies are feeling better.

Glo, you and I can make the "dumb and dumber" list, I bought a new bathingsuit this year , my daughter says , why did you buy another onle identical to the one you already have? I said , I don't have another one like that , I know what I have. She then goes to my drawer and takes out another one identical but in black !! arghhhhhhhh, I forgot I bought it for the cruise last year!!!
Hope your feetsies get better dear....keep them cool.

I though this was going to be a poll!




Hope you feel better soon.

 

[cotye]

No suggestions for ya glo.. just hope ya feel better soon.

 

[nativetxn]

Ouch! Are your tootsies feeling better yet, glo?

 

[Barb]

No new suggestions, Glo. Just use nice soft slippers for a while and feel better soon.
