ps: next time (just in case) a bath of tepid (ugh!!!!NOT hot...that makes me cringe to think what that would cause!) with several boxes of salt...plain ole Morton or Kosher salt...the more you can put in the better. If it's only your extremities that are affected...obviously that would be a lot easier to deal with with a large bowl of salt water.

If there is a next time, next time immediatly upon outbreak go right to your family doctor for a shot/prescription of cortisone...with the injection...you'll be completely clear within 48 hrs...prescription 3-4 days.

I just read where somebody paid $40 for 4-5 hrs relief!...well maybe spending $90-$130 for Retin-A is justified because it will clear it right up! You'll just have a lot left over...that you can put on your pretty face!
