That salt water certainly does the body good - in more ways than one. You could have helped to shorten the duration of the rash. Salt water is drying to the skin. I'd certainly consider hitting the beach if I had a rash. Of course that's a several hour ride from here so I'll just stick to the pool :-).
The only concern I'd have is suntan lotion on an open sore. I'm not a doctor and I don't know what if any issues there may be but it would seem to me that chemicals like suntan lotion may not be desirable on broken skin. |
