Desitin.
My momma raised me on desitin for anything to do with skin.
I don't know what it is, but it's thick and gooey and white and kinda greasy with a peculiar odor. (Alex can probably tell us what it is) But then you really would have to wear a diaper. Stuff is nasty.
The idea of you running nekkid through the house is much cooler. And you're welcome to do it here at DAR. No one will mind a bit.
I should tell you though that I made that up about the throwing up. I never throw up. Ever. Not even if I drink beer and then ride terrible rides at the fair. I have iron intestines of which I am very proud. It's from eating raw hamburger.

I had something on my neck, jp, and with all the Really Bad stuff that had been happening, I got worried. Wouldn't touch it, creened my neck around to look, checked out skin caner, yadda yadda.......

I go to the dermatologist. He says, "Oh. That. That's just some psoriasis."

"Psoriasis? Psoriasis? Isn't that.... heartbreaking? Wouldn't that be like cancer?"

He laughs like Bart's Doctor. "Hee hee hee no."

Crap, I tell MJ. NOW I've got PSORIASIS, TOO!

It went away. It actually had stayed barely long enough to scare the poop out of me. Barely enough to wriggle it in front of the doctor.

Psoriasis. Heartbreak. Ptooey.
TV, that's the real problem.

Once I went to my oncologist, scared sitless. I had a bump MJ, uhm, discovered; discovered in my.......Oscar Meyer.

I'm lying there, under the skylights, under disposable blue paper, and he (Peter, by the way) says, "Yep. There's a bump in there . But cancer of the penis (that's the same as the pee-pee) is comparatively rare." [Whew! whee-wheeky! wheedles-wheee!]

He continues, "It's probably just scar tissue."

"Scar, ....scar tissue?"

"Yah. It probably......took a......beating."

"Oh!

Oh.....

Oh.

.....Thanks."

You might try some Bag Balm, it's a goo used on cows udders when they get sore from milking. Really helps my hands when they get nasty from ice fishing. It might make your undies a little sticky and I ain't going into sticky undies. If you're butt nekkid your undies would be ok but put a piece of visqueen on the chair before you sit.

JP, Your redness revelation reminds me of a line in the
'50s Coasters song Poison Ivy . .

You're gonna need an ocean of Calamine lotion . . .

Had a neighbor once who told a torturous tale of being
bedridden as a teenager with an advance case of "male itch".
He was virtually paralyzed, and his mother had to get the doctor
to make a house call. Calamine was involved.
